The test program cif2cbf (Fig. 5.6.5.3![[link]](/graphics/greenarr.gif)
) uses the same command-line options as img2cif, but accepts either a CIF or a CBF as input instead of an image file. The heart of the code is a series of nested loops. The outermost loop scans through all the data blocks. The next innermost loop scans through all the categories within each data block. The first of the two next innermost loops scans through the columns to copy the column headings. Then the second of these two loops scans through the rows. Finally, the innermost loop scans through the columns for each row.
