<H3>Summary:</H3>
|
||
|
|
<BLOCKQUOTE>
|
||
|
|
The <B>property</B> command implements a general-purpose method
|
||
|
|
of attaching information to a cell definition. Except for a
|
||
|
|
few properties known to the <B>lef</B> and <B>gds</B> commands
|
||
|
|
(q.v.), properties have no inherent meaning to magic but may be
|
||
|
|
used with other programs or scripts to add additional information
|
||
|
|
about a cell definition. <P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
With no arguments, all properties of the current edit cell are
|
||
|
|
listed. With only the <I>key</I> argument, the value associated
|
||
|
|
with the key is returned. With both arguments, the string
|
||
|
|
<I>value</I> is associated with the string <I>key</I> as a
|
||
|
|
property of the cell. If <I>key</I> is an existing key, then
|
||
|
|
its original value will be overwritten.

<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
|
||
|
|
<BLOCKQUOTE>
|
||
|
|
<B>property</B> is implemented as a built-in command in <B>magic</B>.
|
||
|
|
The property structure itself is implemented as a hash table in
|
||
|
|
the cell definition structure.
