COMMAND NAME:

        LOAD_CIRCUIT

USAGE:
        LOAD_CIRCUIT

        This command is used to set up the list of options to invoke
        the Circuit Pre-Processor.

        The buttons on the form are activated by clicking the left mouse
        button.  Type-in fields can be changed by selecting the field
        with the left mouse button & typing in the new value with the
        key board.  Toggle fields can be toggled by clicking the left
        mouse button.

        Load Timing Checkers toggle field controls the loading of
        Timing Checker primitives into the connectivity file for the
        simulator.  Individual timing checker loading can be controlled
        by using the corresponding fields of the timing checker.  These
        fields are: Setup Hold, Edge to Edge, Min Pulse Width, and
        Setup Rise Hold Fall.

        Load Pin Delay toggle field controls the loading of pin to pin
        delay values.  If turned off, body delays are used by the
        simulator.

        Expansion File and Synonym file type-in fields are used to specify
        the compiler output file names.  These default to cmpexp.dat and
        cmpsyn.dat, respectively.

        Use synonyms toggle field controls the use of hierarchical name
        information. If turned off, the Hierarchy navigation OR 
        Hierarchical probing facilities cannot be used.

        Use Path Name toggle field controls the amount of primitive path
        name information stored in RapidSIM.  If partial, the path names
        of UCP's and memory primtives only will be stored.  Otherwise,
        path names of all primitives are stored.

        Use Expansion File Off specifies the use of linker interface to
        read in the design.  Design name specified with the DESIGN
        command is used here.  If turned off, compiler expansion &
        synonym files are used.
