 ====== Load Lookup Table ======
 ===== Description =====
-This functor loads a lookup table from a file. The file name and its path must be specified.
+Loads a lookup table from a file. The file format is determined automatically from the filename's extension.
 ===== Inputs =====
-^ Name ^ Type ^ Description ^
+^ Name  ^ Type  ^ Description  ^
-| Filename  | [[ Lookup Table Filename Type|Lookup Table Filename]]  | Name of the file that contains the lookup table to be loaded. Dinamica automatically determines the file format from a selected file extension (only two column CSV - comma separated value format, is accepted).  |
+| Filename  | [[Lookup Table Filename Type]]  | Name and path of the file to load. If no path is given, the file is located relative to the model script. Only two-column CSV (comma-separated values) format is accepted.  |
 ===== Optional Inputs =====
-^ Name ^ Type ^ Description ^ Default Value ^
+^ Name  ^ Type  ^ Description  ^ Default Value  ^
-| Suffix Digits  | [[Non Negative Int Type|Non Negative Int  ]]  | Number of digits used to represent the file name suffix.  | 0  |
+| Suffix Digits  | [[Non Negative Integer Value Type]]  | Number of digits used to render Step as a filename suffix. If Step needs more digits than this, it is used unmodified. If zero, no suffix is added. This is an advanced port.  | 0  |
-| step  | [[Non Negative Int Type|Non Negative Int  ]]  | Current step or model iteration. Files with the same name and numbered suffixes will be loaded sequentially according to the model step.  | None  |
+| Step  | [[Non Negative Integer Value Type]]  | Current step or model iteration, appended to Filename as a numeric suffix; automatically bound to the innermost compatible container. This is an advanced port.  | .none  |
-| Workdir  | [[Workdir Type|Workdir]]  | Workdir folder path.  | None  |
+| Workdir  | [[Workdir Type]]  | Work directory Filename is relative to; may be a folder or a Zip archive. When not bound, the directory containing the script is used. This is an advanced port.  | .none  |
 ===== Outputs =====
-^ Name ^ Type ^ Description ^
+^ Name  ^ Type  ^ Description  ^
-| Table  | [[ Lookup Table Type|Lookup Table  ]] | The Lookup table loaded by the functor.  |
+| Table  | [[Lookup Table Type]]  | Lookup table loaded from the file.  |
 ===== Group =====
-[[Functor List#Input/Output | Input/Output]]
+[[Functor List#Input / Output | Input / Output]]
 ===== Notes =====
-It is possible to load lookup tables from [[wp>zip_(file_format)|Zip]] archives. See [[useful_tips#loading_files_from_zip_files|this useful tip]] to know how to do it.
+Only the CSV (comma-separated values) file format is supported.
-===== Internal Name =====
+If Step is .none, the loaded filename has no numeric suffix.
+It is possible to load lookup tables from [[wp>zip_(file_format)|Zip]] archives; Workdir may point directly to a Zip archive rather than a folder. See [[Useful Tips#loading_files_from_zip_files|this useful tip]] to know how to do it.
