The present library reads the system configuration file during initialization. This feature makes it possible to use the same executable on machines with different number of chips or boards. The configuration file has the information of defective (or nonexistent) chips on board. In addition, the number of processor boards is supplied from the environment variable. The necessary environment variables are set by sourcing the file /usr2/makino/disk3src/harplibs/set_envs. Add in your .cshrc file the line
source /usr2/makino/disk3src/harplibs/set_envs
