Configuration File Options

You can change some PAM defaults by setting configuration options in a local configuration file ( de_sim.cfg ). There is probably a configuration file in your home directory already, but if there is not, create the following:
$HOME/hpeesof/config/de_sim.cfg

The following three options are specific to the Graphical Cell Compiler (default values are shown):

CELL_COMPILER_DIRECTORY=networks

This specifies the default location for the compiled AEL scripts. When placed in the default location (the networks directory) they are read at startup, and are available in the next session. If you place the compiled scripts in another location, they are not automatically read in. You will have to read them in manually for subsequent session. For example, you might use the USER_AEL option to do this (see the Model Development manual).

CELL_COMPILER_LIBRARY=Compiled Artwork Macros

This specifies the library name as it appears in the Design/Parameters dialog box. All compiled models will be added to the specified library.

CELL_COMPILER_MAX_COPY=1000

This is a threshold value for the Repeat and Polar controls. It defines the number of copies the controls are allowed to make of each shape. It prevents infinite loops or unreasonable requests due to user-data errors. The default value is arbitrary, and there are many cases where the value should be larger; do not hesitate to change it.
