Initialization file

The initialization file is a standard SIC procedure containing only commands from the languages TASK $\backslash$ or SIC $\backslash$. TASK $\backslash$ language must be specified explicitly. The command syntax is always the following
TASK $\backslash$Type_of_parameter "Prompt string" Parameter$[Dimension]

where

• Type_of_Parameter can be CHARACTER, REAL, INTEGER or LOGICAL
• "Prompt string" is a text used as a prompt if required
• Parameter$ is the parameter name, the parameter being a standard SIC variable, possibly with one dimension. It is recommended to include a $ as last character to avoid possible confusion with user declared variables.

TASK\REAL "Threshold" Z_MIN$ 
TASK\FILE "Second input map" Y_NAME$ 
TASK\REAL "Scaling factor" Y_FACTOR$

TASK\REAL "Output offset" OFFSET$ 
TASK\CHARACTER "Function" FUNCTION$ 
TASK\GO                     ! Must be last command

The parameter names, types and dimensions must correspond to those declared in the source code. All parameters must be defined.
