Note

Description

You can invoke FastScan in two different ways. Using the first option, you enter just the application name on the shell command line. Once the tool is invoked, a dialog box prompts you for the required arguments ({design_name file_name cell_name}, design format, and library). Browser buttons are provided for navigating to the appropriate files. Once the design and library are loaded, the tool is in Setup mode and ready for you to begin working on your design.

Using the second option requires you to enter all required arguments at the shell command line. When the tool is finished invoking, the design and library are also loaded. The tool is now in Setup mode and ready for you to begin working on your design.
