Creating a Database File

In some circumstances you may want to save all the information about your system into a new database file. To do this, go to the GIBBS module and use LIST_DATA <Filename> N. This creates a new user database file that contains all the information about the system that is in the workspace.

The N-argument tells the LIST_DATA command to save the output into database file rather than some other type of file, such as a macro file for example. Note that the output database file that you get from LIST_DATA have to undergo some manual editing before it can be used as proper database file.
