SYMPHONY Parameters
The parameter file name is passed to SYMPHONY as the only command line
argument to the master process which is started by the user. Each line
of the parameter file contains either a comment or two words - a
keyword and a value, separated by white space. If the first word
(sequence of non-white-space characters) on a line is not a keyword,
then the line is considered a comment line. Otherwise the parameter
corresponding to the keyword is set to the listed value. Usually the
keyword is the same as the parameter name in the source code. Here we
list the keywords, the type of value that should be given with the
keywords and the default value. A parameter corresponding to keyword
``K'' in process ``P'' can also be set by using the keyword ``P_K''.
To make this list shorter, occasionally a comma separated list of parameters
is given if the meanings of those parameters are strongly
connected. For clarity, the constant name is sometimes given instead
of the numerical value for default settings and options. The
corresponding value is given in curly braces for convenience.
