Suggested priorities for reimplementing GENESIS 2 objects and commands in MOOSE/GENESIS 3. Part 2: non-graphical commands
Already implemented in MOOSE abs addfield addmsg call ce cos
copy create delete deletemsg exists
echo exp getfield getmsg isa le
listcommands listobjects loadtab log move pow
pope pushe pwe quit readcell reset
setclock setfield setupalpha setuptau showclocks showfield
simdump simobjdump simundump sin sqrt step
stop tan tweakalpha tweaktau useclock
High Priority Network commands: (NOTE: The "volume" (3D) commands are not as high priority, but it would be easiest to implement them at the same time. The "2" variants take an additional destination argument and aren't used as often. Could this be made an option for the normal planardelay, etc. commands, instead of separate commands?) createmap planarconnect planardelay planardelay2
planarweight planarweight2 volumeconnect volumedelay
volumedelay2 volumeweight volumeweight2
commands related to synchans:
getsyncount getsyndest getsynindex getsynsrc
normalizeweights resetsynchanbuffers syndelay
exit (alias for quit)
scaletabchan
input (will be useful for running without graphics) check deletefield disable enable floatformat getclock getdate
version
Debugging commands:
debug debugfunc silent gctrace gftrace
clearerrors maxerrors maxwarnings
Medium Priority Math functions: acos asin atan gaussian
max min rand randseed randseed2 (Is this used or needed?)
round trunc
String functions: countchar chr findchar substring strcat strcmp
strlen strncmp strsub
cd | (Should also implement other Unix shell commands as G3 commands, e.g. ls more pwd pushd popd.) | mkdir | (Should we allow the user to create directories?) | save, restore | (These require objects to have SAVE and RESTORE actions) | Commands for text files:
closefile eof fileexists flushfile listfiles
openfile readfile writefile
help (Perhaps have "more" type paging in the genesis console window provided by default?)
Other commands used with imdump, kkit and kinetics: enddump initdump swapdump
msgsubstitute objsubstitute substituteinfo
resetfastmsg (Will this be needed with MOOSE kinetics library?)
getenv setenv printenv where (This is assuming that environment
variables will be used.)
addalias addescape addglobal callfunc getglobal setglobal
getpath getfieldnames listglobals
argc arglist argv getarg printargs shiftarg
el getelementlist (an alias for el) countelementlist
balanceEm calcCm calcRm rallcalcRm
duplicatetable file2tab fileconnect tab2file
listactions listclasses listescape setprompt
Low Priority (Note that this does not necessarily mean "unimportant" or "unlikely to be implemented". But, implemenation will probably wait until someone needs them enough to volunteer to implement them, or other higher priority items are done first.) writecell - This would normally be a high priority, but should probably wait until we have done more work on on XML input/output of cell descriptions. Unlike readcell, writecell was never fully implemented. Commands used with parameter searching: getparamGA initparamBF initparamCG initparamGA initparamSA
initparamSS gen2spk setsearch shapematch spkcmp
setparamGA
concen library commands: setupghk setupNaCa
asciidata (Converts a FMT1 formatted binary file to ASCII).
dd3dmsg gen3dmsg
getdefault setdefault setfieldprot
setrandfield setspatialfield
stack h
putevent
cellsheet egg pastechannel plane
notes logfile
setupgate
position randcomp randcoord relposition rotcoord
"Not sure" - these may be implemented in MOOSE under different names, implemented implicitly without need for a command, or not needed, due to differences between MOOSE and GENESIS 2 -- Comments are requested! abort (Does this have any advantages over "stop"? Is it used?)
deleteall (Deletes all elements from a simulation. Although many scripts use it, its use is discouraged because of it doesn't cleanly reset the state of the simulation.) copyleft_kin (Should something this be built into the G3 boot message and kinetikit, instead of having it as a script command?)
getstat, showstat (May use Unix-dependent system calls.)
cpu (Unix system call to display user/system usage statistics.) Commands used with hsolve (these may not be needed with the new hsolver): findsolvefield getsolvechildname getsolvecompname
Commands used with background jobs and scheduling (may not apply with MOOSE scheduling): addjob deletejob setpriority showjobs
addtask deletetasks resched showsched
setmethod (This will depend on the ways that solvers and integration methods are handled in MOOSE)
Not to be implemented in GENESIS 3: Commands associated with GENESIS 1 (oldconn) synaptic connections: affdelay affweight connect cstat delete_connection
expsum expweight getconn normalize_synapses radialdelay
region_connect scaleweight setconn showconn volume_connect
Undocumented and unused buffer class objects: clearbuffer getinput Other undocumented and unused commands: clonemsgs dirlist maxfileversion tset error warning remarg reclaim | (Reclaims memory from deleted elements - G3 should properly manage memory without an explicit command.) | sh | (Issues Unix operating system command from GENESIS shell. Necessary shell commands should be built into G3, instead.) | setrand | (Is there a need for more than one random number generator? It is time to retire the Num. Rec. generator.) | Commands used with Extended Objects (Extended Objects aren't used very often. Implement another way for users to create new object types at the script level?) addaction addclass addforwmsg addmsgdef addobject
deleteaction deleteclass deleteforwmsg deletemsgdef
