NAME

       scf2read, read2scf, exp2read, read2exp - Translate to and from the Read structure.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Read.h>

       Read *scf2read(
            Scf *scf);

       Scf *read2scf(
            Read *read);

       Exp_info *read2exp(
            Read *read,
            char *EN);

       Read *exp2read(
            Exp_info *e);

DESCRIPTION

       These functions are used internally by the io library for converting between the in memory
       representations of the supported file formats. The Read structure is the central format so
       only  conversion  to  and  from this structure is available. Conversions consist of to and
       from the SCF format and to and from the Experiment File format.

       scf2read() converts an Scf  structure  into  a  Read  structure.  The  Read  structure  is
       allocated by the function. The Scf structure is left unchanged.

       read2scf() converts a Read structure into an Scf structure. The Scf structure is allocated
       by the function. The Read structure is left unchanged.

       exp2read() converts an Exp_info structure into a Read structure. The entryname to  use  in
       the  EN  line  type  of  the  Experiment  File  must  be specified.  The Read structure is
       allocated by the function. The Exp_info structure is left unchanged.

       read2exp() converts a Read structure into an Exp_info structure. The Exp_info structure is
       allocated by the function. The Read structure is left unchanged.

RETURN VALUES

       On  successful  completion,  the  scf2read() and exp2read functions return a pointer to an
       allocated Read structure. Otherwise these functions return NULLRead.

       On successful completion, the read2scf function returns a  pointer  to  an  allocated  Scf
       structure. Otherwise this function returns a null pointer.

       On successful completion, the read2exp function returns a pointer to an allocated Exp_info
       structure. Otherwise this function returns a null pointer.
