Loads workspace variables or d-card data from a Lumerical data file (ldf) file. If any current variables exist with the same names as those in the file, the current values will be overwritten. This command will automatically detect if the .ldf file contains d-card or script workspace variable data and load them into the d-card deck or script workspace, respectively.
