+This version makes all the connections to the ports explicitly using the connection syntax. Since it is common to connect a number of ports to the same circuit in close proximity in the ACT file, the following syntax is also supported.
 <code>
 (i : 8 : fa[i](.a=a[i], .b=b[i], .ci=c[i], .s=s[i], .co=fa[i+1].ci) )

-Depending on the value of index ''i'', input ''x0''/''x1'' are assigned to output ''y'' or ''z''. If ''i'' is even, ''x0'' is assigned to ''y'' and ''x1'' is assigned to ''z''. If ''i'' is odd, ''x0'' is assigned to ''z'' and ''x1'' is assigned to ''y''.

-====== Checking library dependencies ======
-For a hierarchical design with many imported libraries, it could be useful to get dependency information and see if all the libraries are present in the directories where ACT can find them. The command ''adepend'' is used to check dependencies.
-<code>
-$ adepend adder8b.act
-adder8b.act:  adder.act   gates.act
-</code>
-Here, running adepend on ''adderb8.act'' shows that it depends on the ''adder.act'' and ''gates.act''.
