Program Description:

     The UPDATE_BANG utility assigns process classes and token counts

    model        Name of the model which contains the objects.
    object       Name of the root level DFD or process or
                     C-Spec connector.
    undefined    Only undefined processes and C-Spec connectors
    weights      Pathname of class weight table.
                     (default is the bang_weights file in the
