DESCRIPTION

       MBK_IN_FILTER set the input filter for reading compressed Alliance files.  Filter is typically a string containing  filename  and  options.
       This  filter  must read compressed data flow on it standard input and write non compressed data flow on it standard output. Files are taken
       in the first directory where they are found according to the environment variable MBK_CATA_LIB. If a file compressed version and a file non
       compressed  version  exist  booth in the same directory, the non compressed is opended, and a warning message is supllyed. To activate fil-
       ters, variable MBK_FILTER_SFX must be set.

EXAMPLE

       Opening compressed files with gzip :
	    setenv MBK_IN_FILTER "/asim/gnu/bin/gunzip -c"
	    setenv MBK_FILTER_SFX ".gz"
