ENSDAT (VMS version 9.7)

[Modified](9/11/00)

The program ENSDAT (Evaluated Nuclear Structure Drawings And Tables) is similiar to the production program for the Nuclear Data Sheets but more limited in its application. Only ENSDF data files can be used as input and a PostScript file and report file are the only output. As the default, all possible tables, band drawings, and gamma drawings are done for each dataset encountered in the input file. However, it is possible to choose one or more of these groups of output. In addition, it is possible to modify the default tables and drawings by adding commands to the input file using control cards. (See the file ENSDATCOMMANDS.TXT.) A final page is output to the PostScript file which gives a listing of all the keynumbers encountered in the input file.


COMTRANS (VMS version 6.0)

[Modified](10/13/99)

The program COMTRANS is a nuclear structure evaluator tool for translating comments in the Evaluated Nuclear Structures Data File (ENSDF) from the all upper case form to a upper/lower case rich text type form. In addition, older non Y2K compliant files are converted into the new Y2K compliant format. See READCOMT.ME for additional details.

EVALUATORS NOTE: Please do not use COMTRANS on evaluations submitted to the NNDC. Some changes made by COMTRANS are irreversible and complicate editing the file. A program, ENSY2K, will do the Y2K conversion without introducing the dictionary translations to a rich-text type format.
