<DATA>
The SDF format is created from LINKSYS by using the "Export"
option. If PEDRAW reads such a file in it treats it in the
following way:
1. A new ID is created by concatenating the individuals family
name with the LINKSYS ID to create a new unique name (meaning
that information about several different pedigrees can be
contained in the one SDF file). So individual 2-5 from pedigree
F9 becomes F92-5.
2. Each of the (up to) ten phenotype codes is read into the ten
text lines.
3.In a somewhat feeble attempt to guess diagnosis the program
assumes that the first phenotype code refers to affection
status. If it begins with a "2" or contains a "-2" (e.g. if the
phenotype code is "1-2") then the PEDRAW diagnosis code is set
to 1 (for solid shading). Otherwise it is set to 0. If this does
not end up right the diagnosis codes can be adjusted
subsequently by hand <ADJUST> <DATADAT -patterns>.
