How to copy paste text data into T2VOC fortran77?

Dear Nor Asni Axixan,

You have to use a simple, plain text editor (e.g., Notepad; TextPad, Edit, ...) to create your input files, which you then redirect into the TOUGH executable. Assuming you run T2VOCon a PC, just open one of the input files provided with the T2VOC distribution in Notepad as a template and make changes as needed. Then save it and quit Notepad. Open a DOS-Command window, change to the working directory, make sure the T2VOC executable (named, e.g., T2VOC.exe) is either in the working directory or you have appropriately defined the command search path, then type:

T2VOC.exe < input_file_name > output_file_name

These steps are described on Slide 5 of the attached file. You may also go through the tutorial material, which is available at http://esd.lbl.gov/files/research/projects/tough/events/training/TOUGH2_Tutorial.pdf.

Hope this helps,

Stefan

Asni,

Not sure what you mean by "nothing happened". Did the command prompt come back? Were there any error messages printed to the screen? Were any files created in your working directory (e.g., MESH, INCON)? Most importantly: did you get any output in file rgdif.out?

Asni,

Your Step 4a is not correct. you have to change directory (not executing the code) by typing:

cd TOUGH2\Executables\T2_T2VOC_Source_v2.1\Sample_T2VOC

(do NOT append the executable name here!). Type

dir

to confirm that you're now actually in the directory where the input files and executable reside.

Next, execute the code and redirect the standard input and standard output using "<" and ">", respectively, as shown in the instructions, i.e., type:

xt2_t2voc.exe < rgdif.txt > rgdif.out 

You (sort of) say you did that in Step 5, but I cannot see that you actually typed in the command FROM THE COMMAND LINE, i.e., not AFTER you got stuck by just typing

xt2_t2voc.exe

Please try again. Just so you know what happened: T2VOC started and printed this header information to the screen (instead of being redirected to rgdif.out). Now it is waiting for in put from standard input (your keyboard, rather than being read from file rgdif.txt). So if you want, you could actually type in the input file at this point - no, I do NOT recommend you do this...).

Cheers,

Stefan
