= MAKE_TILESP =

== Description ==

This program is the same as [[MAKE_TILES]], but it also sets up the <sequence>.in files to be run in parallel. In other words,'''MAKETILESP''' allows [[bigmapL]] to run every <sequence>.in file it has made at the same time rather than one at a time. 

 (./) Following is copied from make_files--check to see if it's accurate here.

Like [[MAKE_TILES]], '''MAKE_TILESp''' builds <sequence>.IN files that are used to make Z-maps with [[bigmapL]]. Z-maps are essentially a combination of bigmaps that, together, fully wrap around the shape model.

'''MAKE_TILESP''' creates a <sequence>.IN file for every row in the input file [[MAPLIST.TXT]]. 
 /!\ Be sure to include enough bigmap names to fully wrap around the surface (calculate with q-size and surface area of shape).

=== Required Files ===
 * [[MAPLIST.TXT]] - List of bigmap names you want to use. 

=== Output Files ===
 * <map_name>.INN files - Inputs for [[bigmapL]]
 * <MAKE_TILES##.b> files - (./) Not clear on this??

----------

== Using MAKE_TILESP ==

(./) Is this the command line to start this program?  Or is this a command line for running bigmapL using the output files??  

{{{ /usr/local/bin/bigmapL < F00001.INN > F00001.OOT }}}

Here is a sample of the screen output by '''MAKE_TILESP''':

{{{
chmod +x MAKE_TILES01.b
chmod +x MAKE_TILES02.b
chmod +x MAKE_TILES03.b
chmod +x MAKE_TILES04.b

./MAKE_TILES01.b &
./MAKE_TILES02.b &
./MAKE_TILES03.b &
./MAKE_TILES04.b &
}}}

 (!) Copy and paste the screen output into the terminal to create all the z-maps in parallel.
