25. A program storage device readable by a machine, tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by the machine to perform method steps for viewing violations identified by a design rule checker, said method steps comprising: inputting text output from said design rule checker into a software program routine for viewing said violations; inputting design file information into said software program routine; requesting that particular violations be saved in a subset output file; generating said subset output file of said violations for a user to view such that said subset output file contains only said particular violations said user requested to be saved; generating said subset output file in a form that allows said subset output file to be applied against the design file; editing said design file based on said violations; and iterating this process using said subset output file through said design rule checker process as many times as necessary to remove said particular violations.
