| Searching through the code, I can't find a specific use for LMRKLIST1.TXT. It appears to simply be a temporary copy of LMRKLIST.TXT that can be used import/export. It is updated by procedures that add and delete landmarks. If a program tries to touch this file, and it does not exist, it is either created from LMRKLIST.TXT, or uses LMRKLIST.TXT instead of creating it. | This text file contains a list of newly created landmarks. '''LMRKLIST1.TXT''' can be deleted at any time with no repercussions. However, it is useful for various things. For example, if you delete '''LMRKLIST1.TXT''' right before tiling at 35cm, then after you have finished tiling you will have a list of all the landmarks at 35cm. You can then save this list in a different file and store it for future use. Also, the landmarks in '''LMRKLIST1.TXT''' are read by [[EXPORT]], and these are the only landmarks that get exported. If a program tries to use '''LMRKLIST1.TXT''' but it does not exist, that program creates an '''LMRKLIST1.TXT.''' Another important input file which should be read instead of [[LMRKLIST.TXT]] is [[LMRKLISTX.TXT]]. In the limit of a very large number of landmarks > 20 K, reading the [[LMRKLISTX.TXT]] file when you load a landmark into [[lithos]] will result in substantial time savings compared to reading the [[LMRKLIST.TXT]] file. ---------- ''(Compiled by JRW)'' CatedgoryFiles CategoryInputFiles |
LMRKLIST1.TXT
Description
This text file contains a list of newly created landmarks.
LMRKLIST1.TXT can be deleted at any time with no repercussions. However, it is useful for various things.
For example, if you delete LMRKLIST1.TXT right before tiling at 35cm, then after you have finished tiling you will have a list of all the landmarks at 35cm. You can then save this list in a different file and store it for future use.
Also, the landmarks in LMRKLIST1.TXT are read by EXPORT, and these are the only landmarks that get exported. If a program tries to use LMRKLIST1.TXT but it does not exist, that program creates an LMRKLIST1.TXT.
Another important input file which should be read instead of LMRKLIST.TXT is LMRKLISTX.TXT. In the limit of a very large number of landmarks > 20 K, reading the LMRKLISTX.TXT file when you load a landmark into lithos will result in substantial time savings compared to reading the LMRKLIST.TXT file.
