This report constitutes the component manual for McXtrace, and,
together with the manual for the McXtrace system, it
contains full documentation of all aspects of the program. It covers
a description of all official components of the \MCX package with
some theoretical background. Selected test
instruments and representative \MCX\ simulations performed with these
instruments are described in the User Manual.
