Part I - Using MAGIC Chapter 3 - Executing the Simulation 3. EXECUTING THE SIMULATION MAGIC is designed for serial execution of an input file. First, create an input file using INPUTBUILDER or, alternatively, a text editor. The MAGIC software automatically recognizes certain file extensions as belonging to MAGIC2D, MAGIC3D or REVIEW. For MAGIC2D, we recommend using “.m2d,” for MAGIC3D, we recommend that you use “.m3d,” and for REVIEW, we recommend that you use “.toc”. More information on file extensions is presented later. This Chapter describes how to start and interact with the simulation during execution, what to do with the output files, how to interpret error messages, and how to review the simulation results. 3.1 STARTING A MAGIC TOOL You can launch the applications in the MAGIC Tool Suite for Windows in the following manner: Begin with the Windows START menu button.
