Qualifier(s):

/SKELETON=<skt-cdf-path> -skeleton <skt-cdf-path> Skeleton edit field The pathname of a skeleton   CDF to be used during the conversions. (Do not enter an extension.) The skeleton CDF is used in the following cases:
1.
If a format for the destination CDF was not specified, then the format of the skeleton CDF will be used.
2.
If a variable majority for the destination CDF was not specified, then the variable majority of the skeleton CDF will be used.
3.
If a data encoding for the destination CDF was not specified, then the data encoding of the skeleton CDF will be used.

Specifying a skeleton CDF is optional.

Macintosh: At the end of this field a button labeled Select is present. When selected, a standard input file dialog is displayed from which the skeleton CDF may be selected.

/[NO]LOG -[no]log Log progress check box Specifies whether or not messages about the progress of each conversion are displayed.

/[NO]PAGE -[no]page Page output check box Specifies whether or not the output is displayed a page at a time.

/[NO]PERCENT -[no]percent Display percentages check box Specifies whether or not the percentage of a variable's values converted is displayed during the conversion of that variable. Message logging must also be enabled.

/[NO]DELETE -[no]delete Delete existing check box Specifies whether or not a destination CDF is deleted   if it already exists.

/SINGLE | /MULTI -single | -multi Source/Single/Multi radio buttons The format of the destination CDF(s).

VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS : This overrides the format of the skeleton CDF (if one was specified). If neither this qualifier nor a skeleton CDF is specified, then the format of a destination CDF will be the same as that of the source CDF.

Macintosh: Selecting Single or Multi will override the format of the skeleton CDF (if one was specified). If Source is selected (and a skeleton CDF was not specified), then the format of a destination CDF will be the same as that of the source CDF. (Selecting Source will not override the format of a specified skeleton CDF.)

/ROW | /COLUMN -row | -column Source/Row/Column radio buttons The variable majority of the destination CDF(s).

VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS : This overrides the variable majority of the skeleton CDF (if one was specified). If neither this qualifier nor a skeleton CDF is specified, then the variable majority of a destination CDF will be the same as that of the source CDF.

Macintosh: Selecting Row or Column will override the variable majority of the skeleton CDF (if one was specified). If Source is selected (and a skeleton CDF was not specified), then the variable majority of a destination CDF will be the same as that of the source CDF. (Selecting Source will not override the variable majority of a specified skeleton CDF.)

/ENCODING=<encoding> | /HOST | /NETWORK -encoding <encoding> | -host | -network Source/Host/Network/Sun...Vax radio buttons The data encoding of the destination CDF(s).

VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS : This overrides the data encoding of the skeleton CDF (if one was specified). If neither this qualifier nor a skeleton CDF is specified, then the data encoding of a destination CDF will be the same as that of the source CDF. The possible values of <encoding> are host, network, sun, vax, decstation, sgi, ibmpc, ibmrs, mac, hp, next, alphaosf1, alphavmsd, and alphavmsg (and their uppercase equivalents). Note that the host and network qualifiers are no longer necessary (but are supported for compatibility with previous CDF distributions).

Macintosh: Selecting Host, Network, or a specific machine will override the data encoding of the skeleton CDF (if one was specified). If Source is selected (and a skeleton CDF was not specified), then the data encoding of a destination CDF will be the same as that of the source CDF. (Selecting Source will not override the data encoding of a specified skeleton CDF.)

/ZMODE=<mode> -zmode <mode> zMode radio buttons Specifies the zMode   that should be used with the source CDF(s). The zMode may be one of the following:

0
Indicates that zMode should be disabled.
1
Indicates that zMode/1 should be used. (The dimension variances of rVariables will be preserved.)
2
Indicates that zMode/2 should be used. (The dimensions of rVariables having a variance of NOVARY [false] are removed.)
Note that using zMode/1 or zMode/2 on a source CDF that contains rVariables will produce a destination CDF containing only zVariables. The zMode ``view'' provided for the source CDF is written to the destination CDF during the conversion.

/[NO]NEG2POSFP0 -[no]neg2posfp0 -0.0 to 0.0 check box Specifies whether or not -0.0   is converted to 0.0 by the CDF library when read from or written to a CDF. -0.0 is an illegal floating point value on VAXes and DEC Alphas running OpenVMS.

/REPORT=(<types>) -report "<types>" Report info's/warnings/errors check boxes   Specifies the types of return status codes from the CDF library that should be reported/displayed.

VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS : <types> is a comma-separated list of zero or more of the following symbols: errors, warnings, or informationals. Note that these symbols can be truncated (e.g., e, w, and i).

/CACHE=<size> -cache <size> Cache size edit field   Specifies the cache size to be used for the .cdf file of both the source and destination CDF (i.e., the only files if they are both single-file CDFs). If omitted, default cache sizes as chosen by the CDF library are used. The cache size is the number of 512-byte buffers to be used.

/[NO]STATISTICS -[no]statistics Display statistics check box Specifies whether or not caching statistics are displayed at the end of each conversion.
