Console Mode Examples
There are many examples to examine and to help you learn Thermo‑Calc in Console Mode (CM). Some of the examples in the table below are included with specific sections, whereas some of the general examples are included (repeated) in more than one section.
Opening Console Mode Macro Files

All the macro files and the outputs are also combined into one file that you can search and read. This is included with your installation as a PDF (go to Help > Manuals folder > All Thermo‑Calc Documentation and open Thermo‑Calc Console Mode Example Macros.
There are also additional Pourbaix Diagram Examples available.
