The program was designed to read a request list of data names, to locate the associated data in an input CIF and to output the data in the order of the request list. The output retains local conformance to CIF syntax rules, but the output file may not be strictly CIF conformant. For example, the same data can be requested multiple times and will be reproduced as often as requested in the output stream, a feature forbidden within a legal CIF.
