Build ID information is appears in the top bar of the Console window when TUFLOW is executed, and is reported in the header of the .tlf file. <br>[[File:Executable_File_Management_001.png\|600px]] = Run Options= ==Single Simulation Execution== There are a number of ways TUFLOW can be started, in each case the TUFLOW executable is started with the TUFLOW control file (.tcf) as the input.
