Format of the Parameter File

This file uses a Java property file syntax. It is composed of lines which are key-value pairs in the form
   <key> = <value>
Lines with a preceding # are comment-lines and will not be interpreted.
If a given key is not known by the processor it will be ignored. When a parameter file does not contain a parameter of the processor, this parameter will be set to its default value.
For a description of the parameters, please see the Algorithm Parameters page.
