Type of station.
Available inputs are:
“#” : linear interpolation of
variable at this station
“-” : a spline with a slope according
to corresponding tangent is applied
left of specified station
“+” : a spline with a slope according
to corresponding tangent is applied
right of specified station
“*” : a spline with a slope according
to corresponding tangent is applied
on both sides of specified station
“/” : a spline is applied which runs
through the value at specified
station and whose tangent is
calculated automatically
“C” : a segment is applied which
stays constand until the next
station
Default is “#”
