The FILES section allows the user to specify where results will be written and some formatting options. When one adds or edits an element in this section, a dialog box opens:
The following are allowed in this section:
results — Used to specify the output data file. If results is not defined, MIST will use the project file name, appending it with .dat.
listing — Used to specify a data file for other information that sometimes can help in debugging a simulation. If listing is not defined, MIST will use the project file name, appending it with .lst.
samples — Used to specify a file that will contain every BRDF value evaluated during integration. If samples is not defined, no such file will be created.
header — Used to define information that is placed at the top of the output data file. Multiple header variables (simply repeating the header definition) can be specified.
format — Used to specify an output format for the numerical values. The format variable is interpreted using C printf rules. For example, “%12.8le\t” will print the value as a twelve-digit floating point number, with eight digits to the right of the decimal point, followed by a tab character.
