The FEATURE line
A FEATURE line describes how many licenses ("tokens") are available; it
contains the feature name, daemon required, most current build date authorized to
run, token expiration date, number of tokens for the feature, license code, and a
checksum.
Notice the FEATURE lines. If an entry is too long to fit on a single line, a
backslash ("\") appears at the end of the line. A UNIX system reads that as
"whatever you read on the next line belongs on this line". So never edit out the "\"
when you are transcribing a license file. Never put another character after it either.
FEATURE lines in a floating license end in checksums. FLEXlm will let you
know if you mistyped something when transcribing the license files because the
checksum will not match the line’s contents. (GLOBEtrotter has a utility that will
report any checksum errors in a file. Use this command: lmchksum
<license.file>). Lines that start with "#" are comments.
If you want to learn more about the tools that license ModelSim, read the license
manager appendix in the ModelSim reference manual, or visit GLOBEtrotter at

The "options" line is only necessary if you are using a FLEXlm options
file.
