Qualifier(s):

/SKELETON=<skeleton-path> -skeleton <skeleton-path> Skeleton edit field The pathname of the skeleton table to be created. (Do not enter an extension because .skt [UNIX & Macintosh] or .SKT [VMS & MS-DOS ] is appended automatically.) If this qualifier is not specified, the skeleton table will be named <cdf-name>.skt in the default/current directory (where <cdf-name> is the name portion of the CDF from which the skeleton table was created).

Macintosh: At the end of this field a button labeled Select is present. When selected, a standard output file dialog is displayed in which the skeleton table may be specified.

/VALUES=<values> | /NRVTABLE | /NONRV -values <values> | -nrvtable | -nonrv No values/.../Selected values radio buttons Only one of these qualifiers may be specified. The meaning of each is as follows:

/VALUES=<values> (VMS)
SPM_quot "


-values <values> (UNIX & MS-DOS )
SPM_quot "


No values/.../Selected values radio buttons (Macintosh)

VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS : The <values> option specifies which variable values should be put in the skeleton table. Select one of the options from the list which follows. Macintosh: Selecting one of the radio buttons described in the following list specifies which variable values should be put in the skeleton table.

none (VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS )
SPM_quot "


No values radio button (Macintosh)

No variable values should be put in the skeleton table.

nrv (VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS )
SPM_quot "


NRV values radio button (Macintosh)

Only NRV variable values should be put in the skeleton table.

rv (VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS )
SPM_quot "


RV values radio button (Macintosh)

Only RV variable values should be put in the skeleton table.

all (VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS )
SPM_quot "


All values radio button (Macintosh)

All variable values should be put in the skeleton table.

<named> (VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS )
SPM_quot "


Selected values radio button (Macintosh)

Values of the named variables should be put in the skeleton table.

VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS : <values> is a comma-separated list of delimited variable names with the entire list enclosed in double quote marks. NOTE: Do not use double quote marks to delimit a variable name.

Macintosh: The named variables are specified in the Variables edit field as a comma-separated list of delimited variable names.

/NONRV (VMS)
SPM_quot "


-nonrv (UNIX & MS-DOS )
SPM_quot "


Not supported (Macintosh)

Ignore NRV data. (No values are not placed in the skeleton table.)

/NRVTABLE (VMS)
SPM_quot "


-nrvtable (UNIX & MS-DOS )
SPM_quot "


Not supported (Macintosh)

Put NRV variable data values in the skeleton table.

VMS, UNIX, & MS-DOS : Note that only the ``values'' qualifier is actually needed. The others are supported for compatibility with previous CDF distributions.

/[NO]LOG -[no]log Log progress check box Specifies whether or not messages are displayed as the program executes.

/ZMODE=<mode> -zmode <mode> zMode radio buttons Specifies the zMode   that should be used with the CDF. 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.)

/[NO]FORMAT -[no]format Use FORMAT check box Specifies whether or not the FORMAT   attribute is used when writing variable values (if the FORMAT attribute exists and an entry exists for the variable).

/[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 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's .cdf file (i.e., the only file if a single-file CDF). If omitted, a default cache size as chosen by the CDF library is used. The cache size is the number of 512-byte buffers to be used.

/[NO]SCREEN -[no]screen Output to screen check box Specifies whether or not the skeleton table is to be displayed on the terminal screen (written to the ``standard output''). If not, the skeleton table is written to a text file.

/[NO]PAGE -[no]page Page output check box If the skeleton table is being displayed on the terminal screen, specifies whether or not the output is displayed one page (screen) at a time.
