The program is normally run in interactive mode where in it prompts the user for an input file name, followed by an option parameter which can be either an 'B' or 'b' to specify that only a brief print is requested or 'A' or 'a' to request all data to be printed. Please note that if the option 'A' is used all numbers in the normal equations will be printed out. This could produce a tremendously large print file. Therefore the 'B' option is usually reccomended. A third prompt will ask for an output file name for the print file.
The program can also be run by providing run time parameters giving the input file name and the option letter. In this case the output will come to the screen unless it is redirected into a file. As example; rdmat pages.nrm A > print.file.name
This program was written in FORTRAN. Predominantly ANSI standard FORTRAN, a few isolated routines query the operating system for time and date, user and system identification. These "system" routines are inherently non-portable but, should be easily modified or disabled.
