    The feature you're referring to is called eDoc, and the command (in Specman) is "write doc". This lets you write out HTML docs for all or some of the loaded e code. Usually we use it to generate the docs for the eRM packages rather than just the loaded files, so there is a switch to control that.

    I suggest you open up the docs and take a look to see how it works.

    All the Cadence VIP ships with eDoc files that you can explore.

    Thank for your reply. I tried to generate HTML docs for my own written eRM like code, but is fail, I do following command, I think I use wrong command, would like to tell me how to, thank you.

    %specman

    %Specman> load top_e_file.e

    %Specman> write doc

     *** Error: Illegal 'write' command
        write doc

    I'm not going to spoon feed it to you! ;-)
    You know the expression "give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day; teach him to fish and he'll eat forever"...

    Open the docs by running the command "sn_help.sh".

    Next type "write doc" into the search tool and hit Enter.

    Open the first entry that pops up (assuming it returns the right results like on my screen).

    Hi Spark, If you still have a problem then you can do the following: 1. export SPECMAN_WEB_BROWSER= or setenv SPECMAN_WEB_BROWSER 2, open specview 3. load your e files 4. click on eRM button 5. click on edocs option and it will create edoc then you can see it in web browser (view menu) Best Regards!
