13 years ago --- Quote Start --- Hello and thank you for your involvement, i don't know how to make a permanent configuration of tcl commands, according to se_tutor (http://www.alteraforum.com/forum/se_tutor) chapter 14, Tcl commands are what we were typing on the modelsim console, but i've not found nothing talking about scripts. --- Quote End --- Scripts are just files that you run (source) in the Modelsim console. Basically you're just saving yourself some typing. --- Quote Start --- Please help me ... --- Quote End --- I'm trying, but you appear to be missing some fundamental experience with these tools ... so lets see if we can fix that. --- Quote Start --- PS: one thing if I use notepad++ to modify a .DO file, launching modelsim overwites it, so i don't know how to make permanent changes. --- Quote End --- I've never seen Modelsim overwriting files. How are you starting Modelsim? If you are starting Modelsim from Quartus, then it is probably Quartus that is modifying files, not Modelsim. Please review the modelsim_example.zip tutorial on using Modelsim posted in this thread: http://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=32386 That example shows what a Modelsim Tcl script is. Please explain the steps you are performing with Quartus and Modelsim to have the problem with overwriting files. Cheers, Dave
