This command is used to specify a transform file to be
read.

Widget:
- Select "Transform File" from the "File" menu. A file selection
widget will appear. When you have made your selection, the
specified transform file will be read.
Command:
Arguments :
- FILE_NAME: The full or relative path name of any compiled IVE
transform file
Examples :
- TRANSFORM_FILE = ~/trans/trans_model
Notes:
- If the coordinate surfaces of your data are curved, you must
first supply IVE with a TRANSFORM FILE. Transforms map your
curvilinear coordinates to a rectangular Cartesian grid.
- The transform file name can also be specified using the
environment variable IVETRANSFILE (see Environment Variables).
- The IVETRANS environment variable can be used to specify a
directory for the widget to search in (see Environment Variables).
- Refer to Writing Transforms
for IVE for information on writing your own transform
routines.
