Creation of MCNP input files with a visual editor
A visual editor for the MCNP computer code is described that enables the creation of the geometry portion of an input file while dynamically viewing the geometry as it evolves. This menu-driven graphical interface is based on C-language routines that interface with the screen and call FORTRAN routines that initialize the input data and prepare the information for the geometry plots. Advanced features of the visual editor include the creation of transformations; universes, including fills of cells containing the universes; and visualization of the evolving geometry during such creations. This visual editor has been developed for an x-window environment and has been written using x-view libraries. A preliminary version has been released at Westinghouse Hanford Company.
