NAME
       GENLIB_BUS - Creates a bus name for netlist

SYNOPSYS
       #include <genlib.h>
       char *GENLIB_BUS(busname, from, to);
       char *busname;
       long from, to;

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.

PARAMETERS
       busname		   Common signal name for a bus

       from		   Starting index of the set of signal, from included

       to		   Ending index of the set of signal, to included

DESCRIPTION
       GENLIB_BUS Creates a set of names, based upon a common name, valid for the genlib netlist functions that manipulate the signal, and/or con-
       nector, concept.  They are:
	      LOINS(3)
	      LOCON(3)
       The  from, to arguments give the boundaries of the bus to be created, both of them beeing included in the set. The function allows increas-
       ing or decreasing order busses, as one could expect.
       This function has a constant equivalent, it means that if the from, to values are known at compilation time, one  should  better  use,  for
       readability purposes, the "[n:m]" construct.

EXAMPLE
       #include <genlib.h>
       main()
       {
       int b = 0;
       int e = 12;
	    /* Create a figure to work on  */
	    GENLIB_DEF_LOFIG("mycell");
	    /* define interface  */
	    GENLIB_LOCON(GENLIB_BUS("i", b, e), INPUT, GENLIB_BUS("sig", b, e);
	    GENLIB_LOCON("o[2:0]", OUTPUT, "sigout[4:6]");
	    /* Place an instance */
	    GENLIB_LOINS("model","instance", GENLIB_BUS("sig", e/2), "sigout[6]", EOL);
	    /* Save all that on disk */
	    GENLIB_SAVE_LOFIG();
       }
