Characteristics of OASIS Output From Xic

The basic OASIS file generated by Xic has the characteristics listed below.

There are several options in Xic that modify OASIS input/output. Many of these can be controlled by check boxes in the OASIS page in the Export Control and Format Conversion panels from the Convert Menu, which reflect the status of the variables (which can also be set with the !set command or equivalent).
