be sure to install the correct libXss or Sentaurus won't work\\
for example, on a 64 bit machine\\
<code>sudo yum install libXScrnSaver.x86_64</code>

**Sentaurus Workbench**\\
__Adding parameters__\\

**SDE**\\
**Sdevice**\\

__Conditional statements in Sdevice__ \\
Sdevice supports conditional statements within the .cmd file. The syntax to be used is: #else, #elif, #else and #endif. You have to put an # at the beginning of each line of the conditional statements. \\
Example:
<code>
#if @dx@ == 20
#define _ORIGIN_ 500
#elif @dx@ == 30
#define _ORIGIN_ 510
#elif @dx@ == 40
#define _ORIGIN_ 520 
#else 
#define _ORIGIN_ 530
#endif</code>
