3 A guided tour 34mand to run nin89.as isasreml nin89.asHowever, if the path to ASReml is not specified in your system’s Path environmentvariable, a path to this program must also be given. In this case thecommand to run the ASReml job in a PC/Windows environment isMake a habit ofgiving commandfiles the .as extension[path] asreml basename[.as]where path is typically C:\Program Files\ASReml2\bin\ pointing to the locationof the ASReml program. In this guide we assume the command file has a filenameextension .as. ASReml also recognises the filename extension .asc as an ASRemlcommand file. When these are used, the extension (.as or .asc) may be omittedfrom basename.as in the command line if there is no file in the working directorywith the name basename. The options and arguments that can be supplied onthe command line to modify a job at run time are described in Chapter 12.Forming a job templateNewNotice that the data files nin89.asd and nin89aug.asd commenced with a lineof column headings. Since these headings do not contain embedded blanks, wecan use ASReml to make a template for the .as file by running ASReml with thedatafile as the command argument (see Chapter 12). For example, running thecommandasreml nin89aug.asdwrites a file nin89aug.as (if it does not already exist) which looks likeTitle: nin89aug.#variety id pid raw rep nloc yield lat long row column#LANCER 1 NA NA 1 4 NA 4.3 1.2 1 1#LANCER 1 NA NA 1 4 NA 4.3 2.4 2 1#LANCER 1 NA NA 1 4 NA 4.3 3.6 3 1#LANCER 1 NA NA 1 4 NA 4.3 4.8 4 1variety !Aid *pidrawrep *nloc *yieldlatlongrow *column *# Check/Correct these field definitions.nin89aug.asd !SKIP 1
