mat2fea \- convert Matlab .mat file data to FEA file
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B mat2fea
[

.BI \-x " debug_level"

.BI \-m

.BI \-f " variable_name"

.SH DESCRIPTION
This program reads the Matlab matrix variable \fIvariable_name\fP from 
the Matlab data file \fIinfile.mat\fP, creates the ESPS FEA file 
\fIoutfile.fea\fP,
and writes the variable data 
to the FEA field \fIvariable_name\fP.
The variable is taken as a \fIM x N\fP matrix.
The default behavior is to create a field of size \fIN\fP in the output
file and write row \fIn\fP to record \fIn\fP so that \fIoutfile.fea\fP
has \fIN\fP records.  If \fB\-m\fP is specified, the output field is
created as a \fIM x N\fP matrix and the data is written to a single record of 
\fIoutfile.fea\fP.  Matlab string variables (ASCII data) are not supported.
.SH OPTIONS
.PP
The following options are supported:
.TP
.BI \-x " debug_level" "\fR [0]\fP"
Increasing values provide more detailed commentary on program's progress.
.TP
.BI \-m 
Write data to single record output file as a matrix. Default behavior is
is to write one record for each row of the matrix.
.TP
.BI \-f " field_name" 
Name of variable in the input file from which data is read - this field
must be provided.
.SH ESPS PARAMETERS
.PP
No parameter file is read.
.SH ESPS COMMON
.PP
No common processing is performed.
.SH ESPS HEADERS
The command line and comment string, if provided, are added to the
output header as comments.  The output field \fIvariable_name\fP
has data type DOUBLE or DOUBLE_CPLX, depending on the input data.
.SH BUGS
Sometimes has trouble reading information about the variables when 
\fIinfile.mat\fP contains more than one
variable.
