simInitControl

simInitControl(
) 
=> t / nil

Description

Checks whether a file called control exists in the simulation run directory.

The following checks are done:

1. If the simControlFile variable is nil, it locates the files specified by the simDefaultControl variable in the local/si directory.
2. If not found, it locates the files in the etc/si directory using the prependInstallPath function and sets simControlFile to the resulting full pathname.
3. Next, the function copies the file specified by the simControlFile variable to the run directory and names it control.

The function is defined in /etc/skill/si/caplib/init.ile. You can modify this function.
