NAME

       addlomodel - create a tempotary logical model and add it to a list

ORIGIN

       This  software  belongs	to  the  ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Universite Pierre et Marie CURIE, in
       Paris, France.

SYNOPSYS

       #include "mlo.h"
       lofig_list *addlomodel(model, name)
       lofig_list *model;
       char *name;

PARAMETERS

       model		   Pointer to the head of a model list

       name		   Name of the model to be created

DESCRIPTION

       addlomodel creates a new lofig_list element and adds it to the front of the list pointed to by model, and becomes itself the list head.
       The addlomodel function is mosty used to create a temporary list of lofig in order to represent the "in file" instances' models.  In  fact,
       all  the  file  format  used  with  mbk have the notion of models local to files, so they are not figure, but are temporarly used to create
       instance connectors, for example.  For details on the structure, see lofig(3).

RETURN VALUE

       addlomodel returns a pointer to the new head of model list.

ERROR

       "*** mbk error *** addlomodel impossible : model name already exists"
	      The model, not the figure, is already present in the model list pointed to by model, and since a model should be unique, this  can't
	      be.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mut.h"
       #include "mlo.h"
       void add_model(name)
       char *name;
       {
	  MODEL = addlomodel(MODEL, name);
       }
