I think modularity is a good thing and will plug the option for twopass processing that can be specified in an ini file as:
[HAL] TWOPASS=[on][verbose][nodelete] With twopass processing, you can loadrt a given comp type in more than one file. If one uses twopass processing _and_ the names= option for all applicble loadrts, it becomes possible to use and distribute .hal files without modifying other hal files. There are limitations since not all comp files support the names= option and some modules (like kins, motmod, etc) are not applicable. Simulator examples included in the distribution are: configs/sim/simtcl/twopass_compat.ini configs/sim/simtcl/twopass_demo.ini The first, twopass_compat.ini, duplicates the setup for configs/sim/axis/axis.ini with TWOPASS processing to show compatibilty with _existing_ .hal files. The second, twopass_demo.ini, uses TWOPASS and haltcl to demonstrate the use of programming constructs like procedures, loops, and computations. It duplicates the behavior of configs/sim/axis/axis.ini by using a single haltcl file.
