7   Reads  a  file  in  blif  format  into VIS. All the synthesis-specific
8   constructs   of   blif  are  ignored.  Internally  the  blif  file  is
9   automatically  translated  into  an  equivalent blif-mv file, which is
10   then  read  in  with  read_blif_mv.  Note that, currently this command
11   cannot  read  blif files which describe mapped circuits. To get around
12   this  problem,  please  use SIS synthesis tool to generate an ordinary
13   blif file. Command options:
14
15   -c
16          Semi-canonicalize  all  the  tables  in  each  model.  See  the
17          documentation of [1]read_blif_mv for details.
18
19   -e <encoding_file_name>
20          If  set,  the  program  reads in a blif file using the encoding
21          information  specified  in  the  encoding_file_name.  Only  the
22          current  hnode is altered in the process, and hence the read is
23          incremental.  Typically  the  encoding file is written out by a
24          write_blif  operation.  Note that this option cannot be used if
25          no file has been read in. Internally, the encoding file is used
26          in  combination  with  the  blif  file to create a blif-mv file
27          which is compatible with the I/O interface of the current node.
28
29   -h
30          Print the command usage.
31
32   -v
33          If  set, the program prints out all the unused variables in the
34          blif file.
35
36   <file_name>
37          Name  of  a  blif  file  to  be read in. This can be the output
38          written by SIS. in the blif file.
