Remarks:

An SPL file is a simple ASCII text file you can create with any text editor. The file contains SPL functions which you can use in a Worksheet. Any errors detected during the read are written to an ASCII file, filename.err.

To automatically read in function files at start up time, include the filenames in the dadisp.spl file.

SPLREAD does not generate or read OPL files, see SPLLOAD.
