WMbasic is the first serious attempt to run model atmospheres
of hot stars from an easy-to-use shell for MS Windows (XP/ 2000/ NT/ 9x) - less than an hour is required to start
to run the first model calculation.
This version of the program, WM-basic, is a native 32-bit application, conforming to the Multiple Documents Interface
(MDI) standards. All components of the program package have been compiled with Digital Visual Fortran V6.6(Pro)
and Microsoft Visual C++.
WM-basic comprises:
- editing the input file
- running the corresonding atmospheric model
- viewing the output file
- viewing the results graphically using gnuplot (ionizing
fluxes and synthetic spectra)
WM-basic's model calculations includes:
- a simple waiting queue (jobs start at a user-specified time)
- program Split (creates various input files)
- program Abund (creates the abundance file)
- program Hydro (calculates a stationary hydrodynamic stratification)
- program Gtemp (calculates LTE-opacities and a grey temperature
structure for initiating the following iteration cycle)
- program Fmulti (simply calculates the line blocked and blanketed
NLTE model for expanding hot atmospheres)
- For advanced users, WMbasic provides further means (e.g.
namelists and menu items) for detailed control of what is calculated (more and special program utilities are provided)
