The specification "-work work" is wrong, but I keep seeing a directory called "rtl_work". How do I get it to do "-work rtl_work" instead?

    See "details". It would be great if someone could point me to documentation as to how to specify the library vlog needs for "work", and how to be sure that that library has what it needs. The documentation is a bit difficult to find!

    Drew,

    Look in the installation path where you installed Modelsim-Altera. Based on the details in your script I'm guessing it's in "c:/Altera/13.1/Modelsim_ase/docs/pdfdocs". There should also be html format documents you might want to reference such as those in "c:/Altera/13.1/Modelsim_ase/docs/tcl_help_html/contents.htm".
