INDEX OUTPUT

        [MRTCAL\]INDEX OUTPUT [DirName] [/FILE IndexFile]

    Append a new index file in memory (i.e. appended to the Input indeX) and
    make  it the default for writing new entries (i.e. entries saved after a
    calibration). This index file is thus in-out.

    By default, the new entries are saved in the same index file  they  come
    from.  If  you  want to keep the original index file unmodified (e.g. if
    you have no write access), use this command  to  select  another  output
    file. This output index destination is reset by commands which fully re-
    set the Input indeX, namely INDEX OPEN and INDEX BUILD.

    Note that if you mix several directories in the Input indeX, it  becomes
    a non-sense to use a unique index file as output (you will get lost when
    reopening it). This command is basically protected against  this  situa-
    tion.
