2021.2
Overview of external readers and the Altair Binary Format, the generic ASCII reader, running HyperWorks in batch mode, using Tcl/Tk commands, translators, and result math.
FE input readers are C programs that read information from ASCII or binary finite element models files into the HyperMesh database.

These provide an overview of all additions, updates, and changes to the HyperMesh APIs for each release.
Details on the core data that can be queried and manipulated.
This API allows external applications to link HyperMesh as a library and provides a limited set of functions and structures to access specific functionality.
hmlib is a library which contains a set of routines to aid you in writing a C program.
hminlib is a set of routines which allows you to write an external input translator.
hmmodlib is a library of C routines which allows you to perform results translation of more complex data types, such as integration point results or node-on-element results.
Closes hminlib.
Determines if HyperMesh combines loads on the same node.
Provides a way to convert the name of an entity to the entity type used in HyperMesh.
Sets a flag to delete, or not delete, empty components.
Retrieves the name of the file being read for input.
Initializes hminlib. This function must be called before using any other function in hminlib.
Will overwrite or not overwrite entities when the option ‘FE overwrite’ is selected during feinput import.
Allows hminlib to read in all of the entities in the database.
Controls the way HyperWorks Desktop resolves the conflict when an incoming entity has the same name as an existing entity.
Sets the solver type for feinput.
Sets the view to the desired angle as read in the translator.
Details on the HMASCII format and associated commands.
This section contains details on general HyperWorks Desktop scripting concepts, along with documentation on the Tcl commands that can be used to query and modify the database and GUI.
Solver templates are ASCII data files containing HyperMesh Template Language Commands and HyperMesh Template Language Functions.
The Script and Model Library is a database of freely accessible scripts and models posted by users and Altair engineers.
