The Printout of all Transfer Matrices of an Optical System

A transfer matrix for each optical element as well as the full transfer matrix from z=0 to z=zi are printed by one command at the beginning of the optical system: 2 P(RINT) A(LL) ; [example: P   A ;)

Note that this command will produce a very lengthy output and should therefore be used cautiously. The order of the output can be selected with the OO-command. This command will not work when using calculation mode 3.
The special command P A B E ; will produce ascii-files of all optical elements excluding the drift spaces. This is useful for Monte Carlo programs such as MOCADI.
