(Compiled by DL)

'''Purpose:''' Generates the run script and .INN files required to iterate maplets using [[lithosP]].

=== Requires ===
 * make_script.in - text file containing a list of the landmarks to be processed, appended with the end-of-file identifier, 'END'.
 * [[make_scriptP.seed]] - test file containing the [[lithosP]] option commands for iterating each maplet.
 * [[INIT_LITHOS]] - make_scriptP reads the USRMX (maximum number of core processors) value.

NB: [[lithosP]] requires a number of directories and files - refer to relevant guide.

=== Output ===
make_scriptP outputs:
 * run.sh - controlling run script for batch maplet iteration using parallel processing;
  * run script for each core processor:
   * run_script01.b
   * run_script02.b
   * etc ...
 * .INN files - [[lithosP]] seed file for each maplet.
 * rem_script.b - script for removal of temporary files (working directory clean-up).
run_script''nn''.b outputs:
 * .OOT files - standard output from [[lithosP]] for each landmark.
 * [[SUMFILES]]/ - S/C and camera information are updated by [[lithosP]] as image shifts are accepted. New landmarks and limb fits are added to the SUMFILEs;
 * [[LMKFILES]]/ - LMKFILES are updated by [[lithosP]].
 * [[MAPFILES]]/ - MAPFILES are updated by [[lithosP]].
 * a number of information text and display files in the working directory are modified by [[lithosP]]; please refer to the relevant guide for details.

== Using make_scriptP ==

For guidance with iteration procedures, refer to the 'How-To': [[Standard_iteration]].

=== Create Input Files ===

The make_script.in file comprises the list of landmark names for the landmarks which should be processed. It is standard procedure to ensure that the list is ordered by:
 * highest-to-lowest maplet ground sample distance;
 * name (region identifier (e.g.: ''FF''), unique numeric identifier (e.g.: ''0001'');
and the user should ensure that duplicate entries do not exist. The program [[duplicates]] can be used to generate the make_script.in file. 

Example '''make_script.in''' file:
{{{
EE0001
EE0002
EE0003
etc...
END
}}}

== User Warnings ==
 * The user must ensure that the correct number of core processors is set for USRMX, a variable contained in [[INIT_LITHOS]], refer to relevant guide for further details.
