General

The activities of the program of Curved Hull are controlled in a number of respects by the contents of a default file. This appendix describes in detail what this default file may contain. The name of the file should be sh700.sbd and it should be placed in the directory associated with the environment variable SB_SHIP.

The Curved Hull default parameters can be interactively updated via an application specific function described in Default Parameters.

Note: For the general functions common to all interactive applications a general default file exists, with the global name SBD_DEF1, described in the Drafting Guide.

If a file named SBD_CHM.DEF exists in the directory given by SBGD_DEF this file will be used instead of the one given by SBD_DEF1.
