OUTPUT allows you to write entities, remarks, and the
system group table to a CADL file. Attributes, such as
color, line type, line width, text font, and level number,
are transferred to the ASCII file along with selected
entity types.

Enter a filename for the CADL file. If you do not specify 
a drive or a pathname, the file is output to the default 
CADL directory. To identify the file as an ASCII version 
of a CADL file, the system automatically adds the 
extension .cdl.

Choose one of the following output options:

SELECT - to select the entities that you want to output to
the CADL file.

LEVEL - to output all the entities from a designated level
to the CADL file.

ALL ENT - to automatically selects all points, notes,
curves, polygons, and polylines in the current database 
and outputs them to the CADL file.

POSITN - to write a special remark primitive (REM 
POSITION) to the CADL file, based on the option selected.

REMARK - allows you to enter one or more text strings,
which are written to the CADL file as remarks (REM).

GRP TBL - to output the system group table to the CADL 
file in the form of group primitives. If any associated 
text data is found in the GRP.TXT file, it is dumped after
the group primitive record, in the form of REM GRP 
records.

SYS PAR - to dump a part header to the currently open CADL
file. The CADL header is a combination of the statements
that describe the current system parameters for the part.

SET OPT - to set output options when dumping a CADL file.
To achieve the desired results, options must be chosen
before outputting the entities that they affect.

DONE - to exit or close the CADL option menu. Choose this
option when all entries to the CADL file are complete. The
file is closed and you are returned to the CADL menu.
