This command builds a catalog file for use by the parts browser. This is normally called OUT.CAT and resides in the SCRIPT directory.
The MakeCatalog command is one of the components of the Parts Browser system. The parts browser requires a catalog file which lists all the models available to the simulator and for each provides the name of a suitable schematic symbol, a category, pin mapping if relevant, a symbol model property (e.g. X for subcircuits, Q for BJTs) and a preferred pathname if there is more than one model of that name. The MakeCatalog command builds this catalog using the data files all-catalog and user-catalog to obtain information about known parts.
