Streamer Web Interface Overview

This interface is intended as an aid in creating basic Streamer input files. It should be particularly useful to the new user. However, it does not provide access to all of Streamer's features, and is limited in the following ways:

The interface can only read input files that it generated.
$COMMENT and ";" are not available.
$CPRINT and $REPLACE are limited to a single line each. Additionally, the user must be familiar with their syntax.
Only one $OPTIONS block and one $CASE or $SETDATA block are generated.
The web server might not be the same computer on which the streamer program is located, in which case you won't be able to run the model from the interface.

The typical sequence of operations is to set the options, set the data, save the file, run Streamer, then view the results. If you have a previously generated input file (generated with this interface), you might load that file first, then proceed with setting the options and data. You should set the options before the data, as the values of certain options control what data need to be entered. If you don't save the data before you run Streamer, this program will save it for you.

The file generated by this interface can, of course, be edited and enhanced.

IMPORTANT: This interface does not check the validity of the options and data values that you enter. Streamer itself does look for obvious problems with the input data, but don't rely on it for validating your input!
