**ShowPlay Reference Manual, Chapter 4 (StimulusEvents): StimulusName**
===== Stimulus Names -- Stimulus identifier in the Showplay stimulus table =====
The stimulus can be a file name, text string, or a [[jvs:cigal:showplay:manual:chapter4|stimulus command]]. For an indexed table, the stimulus name can also be a number, which is then used as a pointer to a file name in an indexed list.

The [[jvs:cigal:showplay:manual:chapter4:stimulustypes|type of stimulus]] is normally determined automatically from the stimulus name, but it can also be specified explicitly using the [[jvs:cigal:showplay:manual:chapter4:flg|FLG]] argument.
