CDFskeleton

CDFskeleton is used to make a fully structured CDF, called a skeleton CDF, by reading a skeleton table. The skeleton table contains the information necessary to create a CDF that is complete in all respects except for record-variant (RV) variable values. (RV variables vary from record to record.)

To run CDFskeleton on a VAX (NCF cluster)

add the following to your login.com file.
$define cdf$dist ncf_cdf_oper:[ncdf.cdf25-dist]
$@cdf$dist:definitions
type cdfskeleton < skeleton_table > (no extension) at the prompt.

To run CDFskeleton on UNIX (bolero/nssdc/xfiles)

add 'source /ncf/share/apps/cdf25-dist/definitions.csh' to your .cshrc file.
type cdfskeleton < skeleton_table > (no extension) at the prompt.
