Please convince yourself -with the APDL-Mode in-depth documentation. - - With the advent of the modern Ansys GUIs - like ‘WorkBench’ or -‘Discovery AIM’ - the usage of APDL as a wholesale modelling language -has diminished for non automated tasks. But APDL is here to stay: -‘WorkBench’ and ‘AIM’ operate exclusively the Ansys solver with it! -They are producing and sending APDL input (.dat) files to the solver. -For a true understanding of the GUIs’ inner workings a study of their -APDL code is prerequisite! Moreover, the GUIs are not supporting all -solver features. So "Command (APDL)" snippets are used to enhance the -GUIs’ modelling capabilities. - - Nowadays I find APDL-Mode mostly useful for studying solver (.dat) -files which were created by WorkBench. And, especially, for writing -WorkBench ‘Command’ snippets and inspecting longer snippets from other -sources. Accessing swiftly the Ansys APDL reference documentation alone -is worth using APDL-Mode! - - When you "Export" (or "Import") such a WorkBench Command (APDL) -object it becomes associated with a file and is editable with a third -party editor. When you have modified the file then the "File Status" in -Workbench changes and you can pull-in the updated content with the -"Refresh" button. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: First Steps, Next: Introductory Tutorial, Prev: Introduction, Up: Top - -3 First Steps -************* - -Please type ‘M-x apdl’ which opens a buffer in APDL-Mode and you can -inspect the menu bar’s ‘APDL’ and ‘MAPDL’ entries. For existing APDL -files please type ‘M-x apdl-mode’ if the mode is not activated already, -please see the following Configuration section for the pre-configured -file suffixes. - - For further guidance please select the APDL menu ‘APDL-Mode -Documentation’ (or type ‘C-c C-h’) and ‘Describe APDL-Mode’ (or type -‘C-h m’) for the list of its keybindings. You might also check the -introductory APDL-Mode tutorial (doc/A-M_introductory_tutorial.org). - - APDL-Mode is tested with Ansys v193 and v201 under Windows 10, as -well as under Emacs-25 and 26 under GNU-Linux and Windows. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Introductory Tutorial, Next: Usage and Applications, Prev: First Steps, Up: Top - -4 Introductory Tutorial -*********************** - -This introduction is targeted at users with no GNU-Emacs experience. - - Let’s assume you wrote some APDL command and want to check its -parameters. In the menu bar use the "APDL" pull-down menu with the -entry "Show APDL Command Help". The menu shows also the keyboard -shortcut for accessing this command ‘M-?’. You need to know that -Gnu-Emacs is abreviating certain key sequences M-? means typing the -control key and the regular key ‘?’ simultaneously. - - GNU-Emacs provides also a third, so called interactive way to access -this and other functions. By typing ‘M-x’ (the key and the ‘x’ -key at the same time) you are able to access the, so called, -‘minibuffer’ below the status line. There you can input the desired -function by its name. In above example the function -‘apdl-show-command-parameters’. So type ‘M-x’ and in the minibuffer -type ‘apdl-start-ansys-help’ and starting it with the key. - - Typing long function names can be abbreviated with the -auto-completion feature. Just enter the first few characters of a -command and then press the key. Another way of saving keystrokes -is to use the Gnu-Emacs’ fuzzy logic. Instead of typing -‘apdl-show-command-parameter’ it is sufficient to type ‘a-s-c-p’ (and -run it with ). - - You can always cancel minibuffer commands by typing C-g (the function -‘keyboard-quit’), i. e. pressing the key and the ‘g’ key at the -same time. - - All functions described in this help, regardless whether possessing a -keyboard shortcut or not, can be called in this interactive way or they -can be found in the APDL or Ansys menu. (If you prefer to run Emacs in -a terminal window you might access the menu bar with key or -‘M-‘’.) - - You may have noticed the underlined names in this help. These are -hyperlinks to further help, a mouse click or typing the key, when -the cursor is on them (you can skip to these links with the key) -will display their respective help strings. - - In case something unintended happend to your code you are always able -to resort to the Emacs ‘undo’ functionality from the "Edit" menu or by -typing ‘C-x u’. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Usage and Applications, Next: Configuration and Customisation, Prev: Introductory Tutorial, Up: Top - -5 Usage and Applications -************************ - -* Menu: - -* Finding Help:: -* Completion:: -* Code Alignment:: -* Auto-indentation:: -* Closing of control blocks:: -* Code navigation:: -* Sophisticated highlighting:: -* Variable Definitions:: -* Abbreviation Facility:: -* Outlining:: -* Comment Handling:: -* Code Template:: -* Auto-insertion:: -* Process Management:: -* MAPDL Solver:: - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Finding Help, Next: Completion, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.1 Finding Help -================ - -In buffer display of short or browsing the complete Ansys documentation -in a browser. - -* Menu: - -* Brief Command and Syntax Help:: -* APDL Keyword Documentation:: - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Brief Command and Syntax Help, Next: APDL Keyword Documentation, Up: Finding Help - -5.1.1 Brief Command and Syntax Help ------------------------------------ - -Typing "M-?", the key simultaneously with the key and then -, the question mark (for the command ‘apdl-show-command-parameters’) -displays above a code line a brief description of the APDL command and -its syntax. This command counts also the number of parameters and -visualises at which parameter position the cursor currently is. The -command is looking for the next valid command near the cursor or when -using a prefix argument (‘C-u’ or ‘4’) it inquires an APDL command from -you.

Keywords -beginning with a quotation mark ‘"’ describing general manual sections, -for example typing ‘"SHELLS"’ will call the collection of all shell -elements in the Ansys manual. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Completion, Next: Code Alignment, Prev: Finding Help, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.2 Completion -============== - -APDL keyword completion (commands, elements, get- and -parametric-functions) - - Type the first letter or letters of an APDL command, function or -element name and use the key binding "C-M-i" to let the function -‘apdl-complete-symbol’ do the (case sensitve) completion for you. -Depending on the case of your letter or letters to be completed, you -will get a downcased, upcased or capitalised completion. - - There are around 2000 APDL symbols available for completion. -Undocumented APDL commands and deprecated element types are also -completed. The former are identified as such with a different -highlighting and in their ’command syntax help’. Please see also the -variable ‘apdl-deprecated-element-alist’ it’s a list with the deprecated -elements and their respective replacements (for inspecting its content -please click on above hyperlink or type ‘C-hv’ and then type above -variable name). - - Doing this using the key might save you some typing in -auto-completing the name. When the characters before the cursor are not -unambiguous a completion list is shown, select the suitable word from -the list, either by navigation the cursor over the symbol and typing - or clicking with the left (or middle) mouse button is completing -the symbol. Hitting the key removes the listing window. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Code Alignment, Next: Auto-indentation, Prev: Completion, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.3 Code Alignment -================== - -Formatting of variable definitions: - - Typing "C-c C-a" to call the function ‘apdl-align’ will align marked -sections or a paragraph of variable definitions like the following lines - - xyz=30.381 !this is a variable x = 0.4!this is another variable - - they will be aligned to - - xyz = 30.381 !this is a variable x = 0.4 !this is another variable - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Auto-indentation, Next: Closing of control blocks, Prev: Code Alignment, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.4 Auto-indentation -==================== - -of looping and conditional blocks. - - You can customise the indentation depth (APDL Block Offset), please -have a look for the entry ’Customise APDL Mode’ in the APDL-Mode menu. -The Emacs customisation facility optionally saves your choices -automatically in your .emacs file for later sessions. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Closing of control blocks, Next: Code navigation, Prev: Auto-indentation, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.5 Closing of control blocks -============================= - -(*do, *if, ...) with the insertion of appropriate end keywords - - Typing "C-c ]" for the function ‘apdl-close-block’ completes the -current APDL block with the insertion of a newline and an appropriate -end keyword. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Code navigation, Next: Sophisticated highlighting, Prev: Closing of control blocks, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.6 Code navigation -=================== - -with extended keyboard shortcuts. Code lines, number blocks, and -*DO,*IF, DOWHILE, *CREATE blocks etc. - - "M-n" – ‘apdl-next-code-line’ and "M-p" – ‘apdl-previous-code-line’ -are going to the next/previous code line, skipping intermediate comments -and empty lines. - - The following block navigation commands are analogous to Emacs’ -inbuilt list/sexp navigiation. - - "C-M-f" – ‘apdl-next-block-end’ "C-M-b" -–‘apdl-previous-block-start-and-conditional’ Above commands are skipping -to the next/previous block end/start keyword regardless where you are -already in the block structure. "C-M-b" for the function -‘apdl-previous-block-start-and-conditional’ finds also *IF commands -without bases of the keyword ’THEN’; furthermore *CYCLE and *EXIT -looping controls. These provide APDL constructs but represent no block -depth and therefore are not considered when applying the following -navigation commands. - - "C-M-n" – ‘apdl-skip-block-forward’ "C-M-p" – -‘apdl-skip-block-backwards’ - - Are looking for and skipping over a complete block (at the current -block level, skipping possibly over deeper block structures). - - "C-M-u" – ‘apdl-up-block’ "C-M-d" – ‘apdl-down-block’ - - Are searching for and skipping up/down a block structure from the -current block level. - - "C-c {" – ‘apdl-number-block-start’ "C-c }" – ‘apdl-number-block-end’ - - Are searching for and skipping over ’pure’ number blocks (the nblock, -eblocks and cmblocks), these are common (and often quite large) in -WorkBench solver input files (*.inp, *.dat). - - You can also hide and unhide these - usually uninteresting - blocks -with M-x apdl-hide-number-blocks and M-x apdl-show-number-blocks -respectively or even a region of your (un)liking with M-x -apdl-hide-region. In files with the suffix ‘.dat’ number blocks are -hidden by default. - - Moreover there are keyboard shortcuts with which you are able to -input pairs of corresponding characters, like ‘C-c %’ for ’%%’, the APDL -substitution operators. The advantage is that the cursor is placed -between the pair and you might give a numerical argument to the call and -enclose already existing words with the pair, e. q. ‘C-1’ ‘C-c %’. -Please have a look for ‘insert-pair’ and see below in the Keybindings -section. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Sophisticated highlighting, Next: Variable Definitions, Prev: Code navigation, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.7 Sophisticated highlighting -============================== - -(optionally: User variables) - - The highlighting in the highest decoration level (please refer to -‘apdl-highlighting-level’) tries to follow the idiosyncratic Ansys -solver/interpreter logic as closely as possible. For example: ’* ’, an -asterisk with following whitespace(s), is still a valid APDL comment -operator (although deprecated, see the Ansys manual for the *LET -command). - - The fontification distinguishes between APDL commands, undocumented -commands, parametric- and get-functions, elements and deprecated -elements. In case of arbitrary characters after the command names, they -are still highlighted, since these characters are ignored by the Ansys -APDL intepreter. - - A macro is in the Ansys parlance some file with APDL code. In this -sense it is used in the following documentation. Additionally you can -create keyboard macros in Emacs to fasten your edinting, please see -‘kmacro-start-macro’. - - APDL macro variables beginning with an underscore might be APDL -reserved variables and therefore are higlighted in a warning face. -Another example is the percent sign, its highlighting reminds you that -the use of such a pair around a parameter name might force a parameter -substitution, e. g. with the assignment ’I=5’ and ’/com,TEST%I%’, the -/com command outputs TEST5. - - In the context of pairs of ’%’ characters, you can also input various -pairs with keyboard shortcuts, e. g. apostrophies for APDL character -parameters with ‘C-c’, please have a look which bindings are available -with "C-h b" (for ‘describe-bindings’). - - The format strings of *MSG, *MWRITE, *VWRITE and *VREAD are also -highlighted (in decoration levels 2, again please refer to -‘apdl-highlighting-level’). Below is a summary of the C-format -descriptors which can be used for above commands. (with these format -descriptors there are no parentheses needed in contrast to less general -fortran ones): - - %I Integer data %F Floating point format %G General numeric format %E -Scientific notation %C,%S Character strings (up to 128 characters) or -arrays; %/ Line break %% Single percent sign %wI w is the column width. -Integer is preceded by the number of blank characters needed to fill the -column. %0wI Same as above except integer is padded by zeroes instead -of spaces. %0w.pI Pad integer with zeros as necessary to obtain a -minimum of p digits. %w.pF w is the column width. Floating point -format to p decimal places. %w.pG General format with p significant -digits. %w.pE Scientific notation to p decimal places. %wC, %wS -Character string with column width of w. %-wC, %-wS Left justify -character string (right justify is default). %wX Include w blank -characters. - - example code: *vwrite,B(1,1),B(2,1) %E%/%E - - Regarding the highlighting of user variables: The idea is to give a -visual hint whether variable names are spelled and used correctly -everywhere not only at the place of its definition. - - For this to occur ‘apdl-highlighting-level’ must be set to 2 (the -maximum, which is also the default), please have a look at the ‘= -customisation =’ section on how to change settings. - - Newly edited variable definitions are taken into account only when -the variable ‘apdl-dynamic-highlighting-flag’ is set (for very large -files this might slow Emacs and therefore the flag is only effective for -files ending in ’.mac’) or every times you activating the variable -display (with "C-c C-v", see below) in the maximum highlighting level -(2). - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Variable Definitions, Next: Abbreviation Facility, Prev: Sophisticated highlighting, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.8 Variable Definitions -======================== - -definition and component names (*GET, *DIM, *SET, = and DO, ...). - - Typing "C-c C-v" (for ‘apdl-display-variables’) shows all definitions -in your APDL file in a separate window. - - You might remove ’*APDL-variables*’ window with "C-x 4 k" -(‘apdl-delete-other-window’). - - When you place the cursor on the respective line number and type -‘C-u’ ‘M-g g’, where ‘C-u’ is a ’prefix’ argument to ‘M-g g’ -(‘goto-line’)). Emacs will then skip to the corresponding definition -line in the macro file. - - Additionally you are able with a prefix argument for "C-c C-v" to -receive the current value of your variables at the cursor position. For -this functionality it is necessary to have a running Ansys process -(GNU-Linux systems only, please see below the chapter about the solver -communication). - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Abbreviation Facility, Next: Outlining, Prev: Variable Definitions, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.9 Abbreviation Facility -========================= - -for block templates. - - E.g. typing "‘do" (the backquote ’‘’ then ’do’) and the space key - under APDL-Mode triggers an interactive code template which -inserts a *DO loop (‘apdl-do’). "‘d" (then ) is a more immediate -version of it without requesting user input (‘ansys_do’). You can see -all the predefined abbreviations with "‘?", i. e. a question mark ’?’ -after the backquote ’‘’. Alternatively you might use the menu entry or -the command ‘M-x ‘list-abbrevs’ ’ to inspect all definitions which -Emacs knows. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Outlining, Next: Comment Handling, Prev: Abbreviation Facility, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.10 Outlining -============== - -(hiding and expanding) code sections. - - If you are using the pre-configured APDL-Mode then function -‘outline-minor-mode’ is switched on by default. - - With this mode you can hide certain sections of your code or navigate -to customisable outline headings. Certain characters –by default ’!@’ -(see the variable ‘ansys_outline_string’)– at the beginning of a line in -your code represent such headings. ’!@@’ specifies a subheading and so -on (please call the function ‘apdl-skeleton-outline-template’ to insert -a skeleton of outline sections in your current file). Check out the -Outline menu entries. - - In case outlining is not activate you might call Outline Minor Mode -with "M-x outline-minor-mode" or you can enable this mode for the -current session by ticking on the respective option in the menu or -permanently by setting ‘apdl-outline-minor-mode’ for the -‘apdl-mode-hook’ variable. Please type "M-x apdl-customise-ansys " -or use the customisaton system from the menu: ->APDL ->Customise APDL -Mode. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Comment Handling, Next: Code Template, Prev: Outlining, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.11 Comment Handling -===================== - -commenting/un- of whole paragraphs. - - • "M-;" calls ‘comment-dwim’ (Do What I Mean ;-): - - In a code line: This command inserts comment char -‘apdl-indent-comment-string’ at ‘apdl-code-comment-column’ (if feasible, -i. e. the code line is not too long).

You can do this with "M-x - apdl-write-abort-file" (‘apdl-write-abort-file’, you might - previously use the Emacs command ’cd’ (" + x M-x cd ") to - change the current directory). This stop file is halting a running - calculation in an orderly, re-startable fashion. - - • You are able to view the Ansys APDL error file (a file consisting - of the ‘apdl-job’ and the suffix ’.err’ in the current directory) - with "C-c C-e" (this calls ‘apdl-display-error-file’). The error - file is opened in read only mode (see ‘read-only-mode’) and with - the minor mode ‘auto-revert-tail-mode’, which scrolls the buffer - automatically for keeping the current Ansys output visible. - - • You can start the Ansys Help Viewer directly from Emacs with "M-x - apdl-start-ansys-help" (for ‘apdl-start-ansys-help’). - - • You might also start the APDL product launcher from Emacs under - windows or the APDL interpeter under GNU-Linux with "C-c RET" (for - ‘apdl-start-ansys’). - - • For displaying the available licenses (in another Emacs window) - please use "C-c C-l" (for ‘apdl-license-status’). - - If your Ansys installation is not in the default locations APDL-Mode -might not be able to find its executables. Or you want to use mixed -Ansys version installations then it is necessary to customise some -variables. Either by calling the Emacs customisation facility -‘apdl-customise-ansys’ or from the menu bar -> ’APDL’ -> ’Customise APDL -Mode’ -> ’APDL-process’ and look there for the variables ’Ansys License -File’, ’Ansys Util Program’ and ’Ansys Help Program’ as well as ’Ansys -Help Program Parameters’) or set the variables directly in your .emacs -file. Please have a look in the accompanying README.org and the -apdl-config.el customisation example. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: MAPDL Solver, Prev: Process Management, Up: Usage and Applications - -5.15 MAPDL Solver -================= - -control and communication (mainly restricted to GNU-Linux systems). - - With the APDL-Mode keyboard shortcut "C-c RET" (for the command -‘apdl-start-ansys’) you can start the APDL solver/interpreter under -GNU-Linux as an asynchronous process of Emacs. After starting the run -you will see all interpreter output in a separate Emacs ’comint’ -(command interpreter) window. You are now able to interact with this -process in three ways, either by typing directly in the ’*APDL*’ window -or using "C-c C-c" (for ‘apdl-send-to-ansys’). With the latter you can -send either the current code line or a whole selected region to the -running solver. (A selected region means highlighted lines of code. If -there is no running solver the function copies the code to the system -clipboard.) And lastly you are able to send interactively APDL commands -with "C-c C-q" (‘apdl-query-apdl-command’) without switching to the -’*APDL*’ window. If you would like to send your current code line in a -slightly modified form, then give a prefix argument to -‘apdl-query-apdl-command’ and the line will be the intial input for -sending it to the interpreter. - - Another very useful function in this context is "C-c C-u" -(‘apdl-copy-or-send-above’), which sends all code from the beginning up -to the current line to the solver/interpreter. If there is no running -interpreter the function copies the code to the system clipboard. - - The last two commands (‘apdl-copy-or-send-above’ and -‘apdl-send-to-ansys’) are skipping to the next code line (if possible). -If you don’t need this behaviour supply any prefix argument to them and -the cursor will remain in the current line or in the last line of the -previously highlighted region. - - When you are not familiar with Emacs’ keybindings you probably want -to select your part of interest with dragging the mouse pointer while -pressing the first mouse button. Often it is faster to select regions -with specialised keyboard commands. For example "C-M-h" -(‘apdl-mark-block’) marks a whole block level, "M-x mark-paragraph -(‘mark-paragraph’) marks the current paragraph, the last command can not -only be used to initialise a new selection but also to extend an -existing one when repeting the command. Please check the code -navigation commands which APDL-Mode provides (type "C-h b" -(‘describe-bindings’) to see which are available). - - In this mode you are able to start an Ansys graphics screen (without -the rest of graphical user interface) with M-x apdl-start-graphics -(function ‘apdl-start-graphics’). Thus you are able to check and debug -your macro file content visually. The graphics in this state is -changeable with APDL commands (like /view,1,1,1,1) but unfortunately not -through mouse interactions! If you want to turn, zoom, etc., the model -it is best to call ‘apdl-start-pzr-box’ with C-c C-p and a dialog box -will pop up. This is the usual Ansys Pan/Zoom/Rotate dialog for the -graphics screen. But beware: Before you are able to send further -commands to the solver, you first have to close the PZR dialog box. -There is also a family of interactive commands to reposition the -graphics, like C-c C-+ (‘apdl-zoom-in’), replotting works with C-c C-r -(‘apdl-replot’) and a fit to the screen with C-c C-f (‘apdl-fit’), of -course, they are available from the menu as well. - - There is also a command for saving the data and ending the solver -run: ‘apdl-exit-ansys’ and a command for an emergency kill in case the -solver is not stoppable any longer in an orderly way: ‘apdl-kill-ansys’. - - As already indicated APDL-Mode has its own command for invoking the -Ansys Help Viewer "M-x apdl-start-ansys-help" because unfortunately the -following APDL commands do not work when the complete GUI system of -Ansys is not active. - - /ui,help !is it not working in Ansys non-GUI modes help, COMMAND !is -also not working in Ansys non-GUI modes - - So you are not able start the Help Viewer for a *specific* APDL -command but must search within the Ansys Help Viewer or better use the -much faster "C-c C-b". - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Configuration and Customisation, Next: APDL Reference 1, Prev: Usage and Applications, Up: Top - -6 Configuration and Customisation -********************************* - -Most functionality of APDL-Mode is working without additional -configurations.

This tool-tip can now - be switched off with a prefix argument of zero. - • The command ‘ansys-send-to-ansys-and-proceed’ (C-c C-j) is now - interactive, i. e. after invoking this command with its - key-sequence "C-c C-j" it can be repeated by typing just the final - character "j" (or "C-j"). - • The command ‘ansys-send-to-ansys’ (C-c C-c) grabs now the current - paragraph, when there is no region marked. And the cursor doesn’t - skip to the next code line without a prefix argument "C-u". - • The output buffer *Ansys* of the interpreter commands might now - reside on a another Emacs frame. - • switched on truncation of lines for Ansys-Mode buffers, e. g. it - is easier to read when there are many parameters in the - ansys-show-parameter-help. - • Extended the APDL material library which includes now creep and - multi-linear plasticity data in matlib/ as well. - • Is packaged with the current stable version Emacs-24.5 and updated - for Ansys 16. Besides the Windows version there is also now a - source package available for compiling Emacs-24.5 together with - Ansys-Mode. - • Renamed README, NEWS and TODO to *.org, fontification.mac to - example.mac. Included an example.dat and example.anf - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Version 1501 Aug 2014, Next: Version 1452 Mar 2013, Prev: Version 1611 July 2015, Up: News - -10.8 Version 15.0.1 Aug 2014 -============================ - - • Added an example of an Ansys material library - • C-c C-c (ansys-send-to-ansys) doesn’t skip to the next code line - any longer but remains in the code line. The former behaviour - borrows the new function C-c C-j (ansys-send-to-ansys-and-proceed), - executing and then skipping to the next code. - • Improved the ‘ansys-show-blabla... - • Highlighted now the parametric function CXABS(), which was already - introduced in V14. - • Updated the help, completion and highlighting functionality to V15 - And as usual: Corrected some bugs, typos and extended the - templates, e. g. partial solutions with psolve for mass - calculations. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Version 1452 Mar 2013, Next: Version 1451 Sep 2012, Prev: Version 1501 Aug 2014, Up: News - -10.9 Version 14.5.2 Mar 2013 -============================ - - • The unwieldy and usually uninteresting pure number blocks (the - nblock, eblocks and cmblocks) in files with the suffix .dat are now - hidden by default. WorkBench creates these blocks in input files - for the solver. You can, off course, unhide these blocks and - inspect them as well. - - Functions: ‘ansys-hide-number-blocks’, ‘ansys-show-number-blocks’, - ‘ansys-hide-region’ - - Customising variables: ‘ansys-hide-region-before-string’, - ‘ansys-hide-region-after-string’ and - ‘ansys-hide-region-propertize-markers’ - - • Added a way for showing the current value and status of a user - variable at point, overcoming the drawback of C-c C-v - ‘ansys-display-variables’ that it is showing only the variable - definitions and definitions coming from external files are not - shown. You can activate this functionality (Linux only) with a - prefix argument: C-u C-c C-v. - • Fixed the completion and highlighting of command keywords and their - help entries, in the previous release were unfortunately many - keywords missing or entries incomplete. - • As always: Enhancements and corrections for the APDL templates, - added a beam simulation template - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Version 1451 Sep 2012, Next: Version 1401 June 2012, Prev: Version 1452 Mar 2013, Up: News - -10.10 Version 14.5.1 Sep 2012 -============================= - - • Added a function (C-c C-b or "M-x ansys-browse-ansys-help") showing - the detailed Ansys help in your web-browser for an APDL command or - element name (also the element number is sufficient) around the - cursor (or if that fails at the line beginning). - - Are you also tired of the Ansys help browser? For example try - searching for the ‘F’ APDL command, it is impossible! (update - 2014: This has improved with the new help viewer in V15.) You have - to pick it up from the alphabetical command list. Likewise when - you are searching for an incomplete keyword, no hint, no - completion, nothing! Finding and browsing relevant APDL - documentation is still cumbersome and too slow. - - As a highlight of this release you can now read immediately the - detailed Ansys help in your web browser for *all* APDL command AND - element names around the cursor (or for the first command in the - current line if that fails to be valid keyword). You may input - your search string also interactively, including its completion to - Ansys help keywords and of certain help categories, like ‘Release - Notes’ and such. This is an ideal complement to Ansys-Mode’s - in-built ‘command syntax help’. - - • The function ‘ansys-start-ansys’ is now available under Windows as - well and starts the APDL product launcher under this platform. - • When calling ‘ansys-browse-ansys-help’ and - ‘ansys-show-command-parameters’ (M-? - the in-built ‘command - syntax help’) with a prefix argument for interactively entering a - command name, the name is now completable. And in the - non-interactive mode both functions working also for APDL commands - which are commented out as well (only for the first command in case - of ‘ansys-show-command-parameters’). - • Also the input of ‘ansys-query-ansys-command’ (C-c C-q) is now - completable to all current Ansys commands and with an optional - prefix argument the current code line is copied as the initial - input. - • Improved the introductory and the in-depth tutorial and extended - the documentation with an APDL and syntax highlighting reference in - HTML and PDF. (To some degree syntax highlighted in the PDF version - as well) - • Values of the ‘_RETURN’ variable are now documented in the function - ‘ansys-skeleton-information’ - • ‘ansys-next-code-line’ and ‘ansys-previous-code-line’ (M-n, M-p) - are now skipping over node and elements blocks, which are only pure - number blocks. They are now alternatives to - ‘ansys-number-block-start’ C-c { and C-c } respectively - • Removed bug in customisation system and dropped 32 bit Ansys - support in line with the Ansys OS - [ strategy] for - 2013. - • Described a poor man’s round() workaround in - ansys-template-function under the nint() entry - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Version 1401 June 2012, Next: Version 1301 March 2011, Prev: Version 1451 Sep 2012, Up: News - -10.11 Version 14.0.1 June 2012 -============================== - - • Enhanced the documentation, included is now an introductory - tutorial ‘ansys-mode_tutorial.pdf’ and a hands-on tutorial - ‘APDL_tutorial.pdf’ - • Added a timer for getting rid of the parameter help overlays after - some time interval (1 min) without reusing the parameter help - • Added a (customisable) variable ‘ansys-no-of-processors’ and - function with the same name for specifying the number of processors - for an Ansys multiprocessor run - • Activated outline-minor-mode and auto-insertion (in default_el) - • Extended mode commands, templates and removed typos mainly in - ansys-template.el. For example added all *get functions in the - ansys-skeleton-function template - • Added a custom variable the corresponding function - ansys-ansysli-servers for specifying the ansys interconnect license - servers - • Added a new shortcut and menu entry isometric view - • Applied sensible defaults to ansys-lmutil-program, ansys-program - and ansys-help-program, for most needs it should now be enough just - to set the used ansys version (ansys-current-ansys-version, if it - is not 140, see the example configuration file default_el) and - maybe additionally the installation directory - (ansys-install-directory). - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Version 1301 March 2011, Next: Version 1201 Dec 2010, Prev: Version 1401 June 2012, Up: News - -10.12 Version 13.0.1 March 2011 -=============================== - - • Added support for aligning whole sections of Ansys variable - definitions, both in the Ansys menu and as a keyboard shortcut ’C-c - C-a’ - • Enhanced ansys-display-skeleton with an optional argument for - inserting the respective skeleton in the APDL buffer. - • Enhanced some "interactive" code templates with lists for - completing the input and sensible defaults - • Refined some abbreviation definitions and focused the display of - abbreviations to the mode specific ones - • Fixed insert pair functions, like ’C-c %’ - • Changed keyboard shortcut for calling the Ansys help to ’C-c C-h’ - • Updated keyword list, deprecated elements, undocumented commands, - etc. to release 13.0 of Ansys, as usual. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Version 1201 Dec 2010, Next: Version 1102 Nov 2009, Prev: Version 1301 March 2011, Up: News - -10.13 Version 12.0.1 Dec 2010 -============================= - - • Some new graphics commands like ansys-zoom-in, -zoom-out, - -move-left, -right, -up, -down, etc. - • The lisp code had to be split up for better maintenance, the code - files for are now provided in an archive together with their - compiled state for speed reasons. - • Reworked the highlighting mainly for the sake of speed. There are - now highlighting levels to choose from, offering e. g. - highlighting of deprecated element types in a warning-face, - deprecated Ansys * comments and so on - • Updated and improved the readability of the mode’s help and the - README file - • The output from the LMUtil license status tool (C-c C-l) is now - filtered on UNIX to be more concise. - • The ‘ansys-send-to-ansys’ (C-c C-c) and the - ansys-copy-or-send-above (C-c C-u) commands are now generalised so - that they are also doing some useful stuff without a running Ansys - interpreter process (they copy in that case the cursor line/the - chosen region and copy from the file beginning to the cursor line, - respectively, to the clipboard). Given a prefix argument to these - commands, the cursor won’t move to the next code line. - • The completion of Ansys keywords is reworked and has improved. - Ansys symbols are now completed in 3 ways: Up-case, down-case and - capitalise. - • New: Added tool-tips to all Ansys menu entries. Activated or - deactivated menu entries according to the context - • Ansys mode tries to gather information from the OS environment when - the variable ‘ansys-license-file’ is not set by the user and uses - now Ansys standard names as default values for some more variables. - • The variables in the variable summary are now sorted according to - their first occurrence and not any longer in "definition types". - Now component names are included with the variable highlighting. - • Added menu entry for reloading Ansys Mode for the case when certain - customisation options in the code files itself are changed and - require a code reloading to take effect. - • Ansys mode changes some Emacs default behaviour to smooth the - transition from other editors - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Version 1102 Nov 2009, Next: ansys-modeel 1101 2009 in comparison to ansys-model, Prev: Version 1201 Dec 2010, Up: News - -10.14 Version 11.0.2 Nov 2009 -============================= - - • Enabled the preview of code templates or fragments (called - skeletons in this mode, please inspect ‘ansys-display-skeleton’). - • Removed "buffer has no process" bug when killing an ansys-mode - buffer. - • Submitting interactively Ansys commands (via mini-buffer query, not - only as written in a macro file) to the solver process, - ansys-query-ansys-command (C-c C-q). - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: ansys-modeel 1101 2009 in comparison to ansys-model, Prev: Version 1102 Nov 2009, Up: News - -10.15 ansys-mode.el 11.0.1 2009 in comparison to ansys-mod.el, -============================================================== - - • New: Provides Ansys command parameter- and syntax help. - • New: Offers Ansys process management: Acquiring license server - information in a buffer Starting and stopping asynchronously Ansys - runs. Sending code lines to running Ansys process (sort of code - debugging facility) and getting the output into a buffer. - • New: Experimental highlighting of user defined variables. - Redefinition and clearing of variables is not yet taken into - account. - • New: Emacs customisation facility is available for the new Ansys - mode group. - • New: Emacs outline-minor-mode is readily available in conjunction - with this mode. - • Completions of Ansys commands are now case-sensitive, with - additional completion of function and element names. - • Previously defined skeletons are fully functional now, new ones are - added and enabled with the abbreviation and auto-load facilities of - Emacs 22. - • Ansys’ interpreter’s disregard of any capitalisation is now fully - taken into account in the highlighting. - • The apostrophe "’" is now assigned as the Ansys string and the - value of character parameters delimiter and not wrongly """; the - strings are highlighted accordingly. - • The dollar sign "$" is now emphasised as the Ansys condensed input - character (multiple Ansys commands in one line). - • The colon ":" is now emphasised as the Ansys colon do loop - character ("(x:y:z)" means from x to y, in z steps, z is equal to - one as default). For example: "n,(1:6),(2:18:2)" runs 6 loops. - Colon loops are working also with real values: k,,(2.5:3:0.1) and - with array parameters: k,,A(1:100), but the latter is an - undocumented feature. Since ansys 11.0 the colon looping is also - working with *GET functions (example: A(1:5)=NX(1:5))). A ":" - indicates also a beginning of a label for the *GO and *IF command. - • "%" is now distinguished as the Ansys parameter substitution and - format specifier character. - • The ampersand "&" is now correctly highlighted as the only - available Ansys continuation character applicable to the format - commands (*MSG, *MWRITE, *VREAD and *VWRITE) command and the - subsequent format strings of the command are highlighted. - • New: " *" ( before ‘*’) is indicated as an (Ansys deprecated) - comment sign e. g.: %% a = 3 **4 %% results in "a" having the - value 3, whereas %% a = 3**4 %% sets "a" to 81! - • New: A line beginning with a comma is indented to the length of the - last non slash or asterisk command as a reminder that the Ansys - solver interprets this as a space holder for the last command - keyword (the Ansys default command concept). - • Extended documentation, code cleaning and simplification of - commands (e.g. comment handling) with the application of standard - Emacs 22 facilities among other things. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Further Resources, Next: Todos, Prev: News, Up: Top - -11 Further Resources -******************** - -* Menu: - -* Ansys and APDL resources:: -* Emacs editor resources:: -* Other APDL editor resources:: - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Ansys and APDL resources, Next: Emacs editor resources, Up: Further Resources - -11.1 Ansys and APDL resources -============================= - - • The online Ansys reference manuals (https://ansyshelp.ansys.com/) - (registration required) and the Ansys online videos - (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdymxOTZSP8RzRgFT8kpYpA) on - YouTube - • The Ansys homepage (http://www.ansys.com) with the Ansys Portal and - Learning Hub - • Xansys, an Ansys online community (http://www.xansys.org) (forum - registration is necessary) - • The PADT Focus (http://www.padtinc.com/blog/the-focus/) site. - • A general Ansys repository Ansys.net (http://www.ansys.net) - • AUC (http://www.auc-ev.de/), the Ansys User Club eV. in Germany - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Emacs editor resources, Next: Other APDL editor resources, Prev: Ansys and APDL resources, Up: Further Resources - -11.2 Emacs editor resources -=========================== - - • The guided Tour - (https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/tour/index.html) of GNU-Emacs - • Emacs’ Stackexchange (http://emacs.stackexchange.com), the question - and answer site for Emacs - • EmacsWiki (http://www.emacswiki.org), an encyclopedia for - everything Emacs related - • The Emacs help mailing list - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Other APDL editor resources, Prev: Emacs editor resources, Up: Further Resources - -11.3 Other APDL editor resources -================================ - - • Since Ansys 2020R1 the Command (APDL) worksheet acquired - finally - - syntax highlighting and command completion - • The Ansys APDL plug-in - (https://catalog.ansys.com/product/5b3bc6857a2f9a5c90d32ddb/apdl-editor) - from the Ansys store, published in 2017 (and not maintained since - then?) - • Simple APDL syntax highlighting extensions are available for - various editors, gvim, nedit, ... to name a few, please have a look - at Ansys.net (https://ansys.net) - • A commercial competitor of apdl-mode: The Pedal - (http://www.padtinc.com/pedal) script editor for Windows, project - disbanded in 2015 - • A free Windows APDL editor (http://apdl.de), site not maintained - since 2011 - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Todos, Next: Acknowledgements, Prev: Further Resources, Up: Top - -12 Todos -******** - -* Menu: - -* Version 20.5.0?: Version 2050?. -* Version 20.4.0, updated to 2020R1: Version 2040 updated to 2020R1. -* 20.3.0, Melpa: 2030 Melpa. -* 20.2.0: 2020. -* 20.1.1: 2011. -* 162-2:: 162-2. -* Deficiencies:: Deficiencies. -* Procedures:: -* Ideas for further versions:: - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Version 2050?, Next: Version 2040 updated to 2020R1, Up: Todos - -12.1 Version 20.5.0?

PREAMBLE - - The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other - functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to - assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, - with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. - Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way - to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible - for modifications made by others. - - This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative - works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It - complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft - license designed for free software. - - We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free - software, because free software needs free documentation: a free - program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the - software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; - it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or - whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License - principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference. - - - 1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS - - This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that - contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be - distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice grants a - world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that - work under the conditions stated herein. The "Document", below, - refers to any such manual or work. Any member of the public is a - licensee, and is addressed as "you". You accept the license if you - copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission - under copyright law. - - A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the - Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with - modifications and/or translated into another language. - - A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section of - the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the - publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall - subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall - directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document is in - part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain - any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical - connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal, - commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding - them. - - The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles - are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice - that says that the Document is released under this License. If a - section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not - allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may contain zero - Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify any Invariant - Sections then there are none. - - The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed, - as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that - the Document is released under this License. A Front-Cover Text may - be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words. - - A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, - represented in a format whose specification is available to the - general public, that is suitable for revising the document - straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of - pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available - drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or - for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input - to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file - format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart - or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. - An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount - of text. A copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque". - - Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain - ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML - or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple - HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification. Examples of - transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats - include proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by - proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or - processing tools are not generally available, and the - machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word - processors for output purposes only. - - The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself, - plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material - this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in - formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means - the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title, - preceding the beginning of the body of the text. - - The "publisher" means any person or entity that distributes copies of - the Document to the public. - - A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document whose - title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following - text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ stands for a - specific section name mentioned below, such as "Acknowledgements", - "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".) To "Preserve the Title" - of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a - section "Entitled XYZ" according to this definition. - - The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which - states that this License applies to the Document. These Warranty - Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this - License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other - implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has - no effect on the meaning of this License. - - 2. VERBATIM COPYING - - You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either - commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the - copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies - to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no - other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use - technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further - copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept - compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough - number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3. - - You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and - you may publicly display copies. - - - 3. COPYING IN QUANTITY - - If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have - printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the - Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the - copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover - Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on - the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify - you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present - the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and - visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition. - Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve - the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated - as verbatim copying in other respects. - - If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit - legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit - reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent - pages. - - If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering - more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent - copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy - a computer-network location from which the general network-using - public has access to download using public-standard network protocols - a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material. - If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, - when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure - that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated - location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an - Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that - edition to the public. - - It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the - Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to - give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the - Document. - - - 4. MODIFICATIONS - - You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under - the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release - the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified - Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution - and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy - of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version: - - A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct - from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions - (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section - of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version - if the original publisher of that version gives permission. - B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities - responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified - Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the - Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five), - unless they release you from this requirement. - C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the - Modified Version, as the publisher. - D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document. - E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications - adjacent to the other copyright notices. - F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice - giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the - terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below. - G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections - and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice. - H. Include an unaltered copy of this License. - I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title, and add - to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and - publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If - there is no section Entitled "History" in the Document, create one - stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as - given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified - Version as stated in the previous sentence. - J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for - public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise - the network locations given in the Document for previous versions - it was based on. These may be placed in the "History" section. - You may omit a network location for a work that was published at - least four years before the Document itself, or if the original - publisher of the version it refers to gives permission. - K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications", - Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all - the substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements - and/or dedications given therein. - L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, - unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers - or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles. - M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section - may not be included in the Modified Version. - N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled "Endorsements" - or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section. - O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers. - - If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or - appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material - copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all - of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the - list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice. - These titles must be distinct from any other section titles. - - You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains - nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various - parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text has - been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a - standard. - - You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a - passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list - of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of - Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or - through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already - includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or - by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of, - you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit - permission from the previous publisher that added the old one. - - The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License - give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or - imply endorsement of any Modified Version. - - - 5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS - - You may combine the Document with other documents released under this - License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified - versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the - Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and - list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its - license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers. - - The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and - multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single - copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but - different contents, make the title of each such section unique by - adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original - author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number. - Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of - Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work. - - In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled "History" - in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled - "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled "Acknowledgements", - and any sections Entitled "Dedications". You must delete all sections - Entitled "Endorsements". - - - 6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS - - You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other - documents released under this License, and replace the individual - copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy - that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the rules - of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents in all - other respects. - - You may extract a single document from such a collection, and - distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert a - copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this - License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that - document. - - - 7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS - - A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate - and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or - distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the copyright - resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights - of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit. - When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not - apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves - derivative works of the Document. - - If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these - copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of - the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on - covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the - electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form. - Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole - aggregate. - - - 8. TRANSLATION - - Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may - distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4. - Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special - permission from their copyright holders, but you may include - translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the - original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a - translation of this License, and all the license notices in the - Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include - the original English version of this License and the original versions - of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a disagreement between - the translation and the original version of this License or a notice - or disclaimer, the original version will prevail. - - If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements", - "Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to Preserve - its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual - title. - - - 9. TERMINATION - - You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document - except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt - otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void, and - will automatically terminate your rights under this License. - - However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license - from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally, - unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and finally - terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder - fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to - 60 days after the cessation. - - Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is - reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the - violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have - received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that - copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after - your receipt of the notice. - - Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the - licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under - this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently - reinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of the same material does - not give you any rights to use it. - - - 10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE - - The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the - GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new versions - will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in - detail to address new problems or concerns. See - https://www.gnu.org/licenses/. - - Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. - If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this - License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of - following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or - of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the - Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version - number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not - as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the Document - specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of this - License can be used, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of a - version permanently authorizes you to choose that version for the - Document. - - 11. RELICENSING - - "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site" (or "MMC Site") means any - World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also - provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works. A - public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server. A - "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration" (or "MMC") contained in the site - means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC site. - - "CC-BY-SA" means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 - license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit - corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco, - California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license - published by that same organization. - - "Incorporate" means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or in - part, as part of another Document. - - An MMC is "eligible for relicensing" if it is licensed under this - License, and if all works that were first published under this License - somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently incorporated in whole or - in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover texts or invariant sections, and - (2) were thus incorporated prior to November 1, 2008. - - The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the site - under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1, 2009, - provided the MMC is eligible for relicensing. - - - ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents - - To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of - the License in the document and put the following copyright and - license notices just after the title page: - - Copyright (c) YEAR YOUR NAME. - Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document - under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3 - or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; - with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts. - A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU - Free Documentation License". - - If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts, - replace the "with...Texts." line with this: - - with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the - Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST. - - If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other - combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the - situation. - - If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we - recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of - free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, - to permit their use in free software. - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Variable Index, Next: Concept Index, Prev: GNU Free Documentation License, Up: Top - -Variable Index -************** - - -File: apdl-mode.info, Node: Concept Index, Prev: Variable Index, Up: Top -
