.SH NAME
\fBnec2c\fR \- Translation of the NEC2 FORTRAN source code to the C language

.SH SYNOPSIS

\fBnec2c\fR [/-i<input-file-name>] [/-o<output-file-name>][/-hv]

.SH DESCRIPTION

The translation was performed mostly "by hand" and a lot of
modifications to the original program were introduced in order to
modernize the NEC2 and to remove as many built-in limitations as
possible. The attendant SOMNEC program was also translated to C and
incorporated in nec2c as a function so that Sommerfeld ground solutions
are a part of the program.

.SH OPTIONS

The \-i option is always needed and it specifies the name of the input
file. The \-o switch is optional and it specifies the output file name.
If not used, a name for the output file is made by stripping any
extensions from the input file name and adding a ".out" extension, e.g.
nec2c \-i yagi.nec will cause nec2c to read yagi.nec as the input file
and produce yagi.out as the output file.
