Parameters:

    function llsr_read_specfile(control, specfile)

Read the content of a specification file, and assign values associated with given keywords to the corresponding control parameters. An in-depth discussion of specification files is available, and a detailed list of keywords with associated default values is provided in $GALAHAD/src/llsr/LLSR.template. See also Table 2.1 in the Fortran documentation provided in $GALAHAD/doc/llsr.pdf for a list of how these keywords relate to the components of the control structure.

Parameters:

control

is a structure containing control information (see llsr_control_type)

specfile

is a one-dimensional array of type Vararg{Cchar} that must give the name of the specification file
