=== When to Fix Landmarks ===

At the end of each tiling or iteration, a form of find_nofit (T or P) is used to check for bad landmarks.

A common find_nofit output will look soemthing like this:

{{{
EQ0004: cat 004.OOT
EP0002: cat 005.OOT
EP0003: cat 006.OOT
EO0003: cat 007.OOT
EN0003: * cat 008.OOT
EN0004: * cat 009.OOT
EM0003: . cat 010.OOT
EM0004: * cat 011.OOT
132 deleted
   ! cat 132.OOTThe
}}}

The Four main types of find_nofit outputs are:

 * ! - the landmark was deleted
 * . - the landmark has overlaps
 * (space) - the landmark has minor error (don't worry about it).
 * * - the landmark has a major error and must be fixed.

All errors are worth recording, but the only output from find_nofit that warrants serious concern is *. Whenever a * is present in the find_nofit output the landmark that * is associated with must be fixed. To fix bad land marks [[lithos.e|lithos]] is used in the working directory.

=== How to Fix Landmarks ===

Once a problem landmark is identified, the executable [[lithos.e|lithos]] can be entered in the working directory to fix the landmark.

As an example, the landmark EM0004 in the find_nofit output above has major errors. To select this landmark the following commands are entered in the [[lithos.e|lithos]] executable:

{{{
i
EM0004
n
n
}}}

The output of these commands looks like this:

{{{
Current landmark = NONE

 >i
