With RSURF you can nest files up to four levels. The following diagram shows
two levels of nesting. Files A, B, and C make up a Road Surface file named
“ROAD1.DRVRS.” The level 2 drive Road Surface file,
“NESTEDROADS.DRVRS”, contains four passes of ROAD1.DRVRS.
.
You can nest a Road Surface file inside three other Road Surface files to produce
a complex Road Surface file of drive files. For example, in the following
diagram, R4.DRVRS is nested in Road Surface files R3.DRVRS, R2.DRVRS,
and R1.DRVRS:
