Define a Connector Class
This macro defines a mooring line class. One uses the macro as follows: 

 
      ML_PROP  NAME \
               WDEP \
               DATA \
               -SLOPE SLOPE \
               -CONEPY CONEPY \
               -SEND SEND \
               -BOTFRIC BOTFRIC \
               -TLINE
Here, name is the NAME of the class to be defined, and WDEP is the water DEPTH at the anchor (feet or meters). "DATA" defines each segment and contains four pieces of information per segment. 

 
      Type of Segment ( WIRE, FIBER, POLY, NYLON, DACRON or CHAIN),
      diameter in inches or mm,
      length   in feet or meters, and
      clump weight in current "large" force units
WIRE defines an IWRC wire rope, FIBER defines a fiber core wire rope, POLY a polypropylene rope, NYLON, and KEVLAR ropes made from these materials, and CHAIN defines a chain. This macro computes the properties based on the wire and chain tables. If the option -TLINE is used, a H_CAT will be defined, otherwise a class for an B_CAT will be generated. This macro honors the options -SLOPE, -BOTFRICT, -CONEPY, and -SEND which are simply passed along to the class definition.
