How to use "sv"

At first, change current directory to the directory which contains the SHELXL output file you want to see. The files you need are, shelxb.out for SHELX-76, shelxl.res for SHELXL-93,97, shelxs.res for SHELXS, *.dat for CSD FDAT file. You can also display CIF or mopac with file converter script distributed with the source package.
For example, if you want to see /crystal/data/shelxl.res,
```
   "cd ~/crystal/data"
   
```
Next, execute sv.
```
   "sv" or "sv shelxl.res"
   
```
The filename can be omit. In this case, the file name is automatically determined in this sequence. 1. shelxl.res, 2. shelxl.ins, 3. shelxs.res, 4. shelxb.out. This sequence can be modify with sv configuration file.
To exit sv, type "exit"/"quit" at the command line of sv or select Exit from menu button.
