% This version was modified by Peter Ferjancic to accept .nrrd file format
% for target. It was also rollbacked on some parameters back to the
% clinical system settings.

% This file has been modified by Surendra Prajapati especially to run
% WiscPlan for KV beams. Works for running locally as well as in Server.

% RTF 11/4/05
% Sets up the run files needed for running a Condor convolution
% superposition dose calculation with photon beams.

% Versions of the convolution code that run in both Windows XP, Condor, and
% directly through Matlab can all be created here.  The only real
% differences between the files are in the access conventions, which just%
% This has to do with switching forward slashes with backslashes.

% Surendra edits: num_batches, SAD, pitch, xpmin/max, ypmin/max, Mxp, Nphi 
% Also edit: 
% Kernel should always be named Kernels.mat
