13 The mbkenv function set the user preferences through unix environment
14 variables. if all the variables are not defined, default values are
15 used.
16 MBK_WORK_LIB internally char ∗WORK_LIB, sets the work‐
18 ing directory for reading and writing,
19 result of a savephfig for example. Its
20 value is "." by default.
21 MBK_CATA_LIB internally char ∗∗CATA_LIB, sets the
23 working directories for reading only.
24 This is a set of paths, like the unix
25 PATH variable. It is used in loadlofig
26 for example. Its value is "." by default.
27 MBK_CATAL_NAME internally char ∗CATAL_NAME, sets the
29 name of the catalog file, needed to know
30 where to stop a flatten, and so on. Set
31 to "CATAL" by default.
32 MBK_SEPAR internally char SEPAR, sets the character
34 used for string concatenation. Used for
35 example in concatname. By default it is
36 ".".
37 MBK_VDD internally char *VDD, sets the name to be
39 used as power level recognition pattern
40 by the tools based upon mbk that needs to
41 identify supplies. The default is "vdd".
42 MBK_VSS internally char *VSS, sets the name to be
44 used as ground level recognition pattern
45 by the tools based upon mbk that needs to
46 identify supplies. The default is "vss".
47 MBK_TRACE_MODE internally char TRACE_MODE, output infor‐
49 mation in each mbk access function it
50 enters. Used for debugging purposes. By
51 default it is 'N'.
52 MBK_DEBUG_MODE internally char DEBUG_MODE, output infor‐
54 mation in function that makes a check on
55 its values : mostly parsers for debug. It
56 is very verbose, and mostly unusable. No
57 mbk function take care of it. By default
58 it is 'N'.
59 MBK_FAST_MODE internally char FAST_MODE. If set to 'Y',
61 no consistency checked are performed on
62 many mbk functions. This can work only on
63 a program that is warrantied to be bug‐
64 less, else undefined results would occur.
65 By default it is 'N'.
66 MBK_IN_LO internally char IN_LO[5]. Defines the
68 logical input format demanded by the
69 user. See MBK_IN_LO(1) for a list of
70 valid formats. By default its value is
71 "al".
72 MBK_OUT_LO internally char OUT_LO[5]. Defines the
74 logical input format demanded by the
75 user. See MBK_OUT_LO(1) for a list of
76 valid formats. By default its value is
77 "al".
78 MBK_IN_PH internally char IN_PH[5]. Defines the
80 logical input format demanded by the
81 user. See MBK_IN_PH(1) for a list of
82 valid formats. By default its value is
83 "ap".
84 MBK_OUT_PH internally char OUT_PH[5]. Defines the
86 logical input format demanded by the
87 user. See MBK_OUT_PH(1) for a list of
88 valid formats. By default its value is
89 "ap".
90 MBK_SCALE_X internally long SCALE_X. Defines a scale
92 factor for all coordinates, in order to
93 be able to use files that works with half
94 lambda rules for example. Parsers, driv‐
95 ers and genlib's macros use it exten‐
96 sivly. Its value is ten by default.
97 MBK_IN_FILTER internaly IN_FILTER. Filter string for
99 reading compressed Alliance files. It
100 has no value by default, means no filter
101 is used.
102 MBK_OUT_FILTER internaly OUT_FILTER. Filter string for
104 writing compressed Alliance files. It
105 has no value by default, means no filter
106 is used.
107 MBK_FILTER_SFX internaly FILTER_SFX. Extention of com‐
109 pressed files. It has no value by
110 default, means no filter is used.
