The addons variable

In addition to window and batch user_hooks, the PrefVsim(addOns) variable

provides a user_hook that allows you to integrate add-ons with VSIM. Refer to

any vendor-supplied instructions for specifics about connecting third-party add-

ons to VSIM.

The ListTranslateTable specifies how various enumerations of various types map

into the nine logic types that the List and Wave window know how to display. This

mapping is used for vectors only; scalars are displayed with the original enum

value. The following example values show that the std_logic_1164 types map in

a one-to-one manner, and also shows mappings for boolean and Verilog types.

You can add additional translations for your own user-defined types. These

variables may be set from the command line; see "Setting preferences from the

ModelSim command line" (p215) for more information.
