SaveSymlib Command

Writes the entire global symbol library or a specified installed symbol library file to filename . An append option allows a new symbol library file to be created that consists of multiple libraries combined in one file. This command can also be used to convert symbol libraries from ASCII to XML format and vice-versa.

Use /xml to save in XML format or /ascii to save in ASCII format. If neither is specified, the format used will be determined by the option setting SymbolLibrarySaveFormat. This usualy preserves the original format if appending otherwise uses ASCII format.

SaveSymlib [/v25] [/append] [/force] /lib <libname>|/all <filename>

Parameters

/all

Write out all installed symbols.

/append

Symbols are appended to filename . Otherwise filename will be overwritten if it already exists. Note that any symbols written that are already present in filename will be overwritten. It is not possible to have duplicate symbols within the same library file.

/ascii

Force save to ascii file format.

/force

Allows symbols to be written to an existing library file. Otherwise if filename is an existing installed library, the command will abort with an error message.

/lib

Name of library file to write out. This must be an installed library.

/xml

Force to save in XML format

filename

File to receive symbols.
