SYNOPSIS

subroutine setprompts(verb,init)

   character(len=*),intent(in):: verb
   character(len=*),intent(in):: init

DESCRIPTION

Optionally set prompts for interactive prompting mode. The syntax of the call is the same as for KRACKEN(3f)/DISSECT(3f) except that prompt strings are given instead of default values. It is called before a call to KRACKEN(3f) or DISSECT(3f).

OPTIONS

verb	name to define prompts for
string	to define prompts instead of values

EXAMPLES

Sample program:

    program demo_setprompts
    use M_kracken, only : kracken,iget,rget,sget,setprompts
    implicit none

    call setprompts(’demo’, ’ -int My INTEGER value  -float My REAL value  -str My CHARACTER value’)
    call kracken(   ’demo’, ’ -int 100 -float 123.456 -str DEFAULT’)
    write(*,’(a,i0)’)’INTEGER IS ’,iget(’demo_int’)
    write(*,’(a,g0)’)’REAL IS ’,rget(’demo_float’)
    write(*,’(a,a)’)’STRING IS ’//trim(sget(’demo_str’))

    end program demo_setprompts

Example execution and output:

       $ demo_setprompts -?
       demo parameters are
       >   1)My CHARACTER value:[DEFAULT]
           3)My INTEGER value:[100]
           4)My REAL value:[123.456]
       Enter parameter number to change("RETURN" to finish):
