The new user is strongly advised to ignore this facility. The program will automatically generate the appropriate number of spectral lines for the particular method of analysis, and it is only in unusual circumstances that user input is required.

(1) The number of spectral lines is the number of spectral ordinates required to define the spectrum in order to achieve an accuracy comparable to the formulation of the analysis in which it is used. This is necessarily a general definition as the program uses this number in several different ways.

This number of spectral lines will be used for ALL subsequent spectra in all groups, unless a particular spectrum type requires a different number. For example, a spectrum imported using the IWHT data record will always use 200 lines, irrespective of any value input using the NSPL data record.
