Interpret cloud properties as layer properties (this is the default behaviour since version 1.4; see also wc_file). Cloud properties are assumed to be constant over the layer. The layer reaches from the level, where the properties are defined in the wc_file to the level above that one. For example, the following lines
#      z     LWC    R_eff
#     (km)  (g/m$$^3$$) (um)    
      4.000   0.0   0.0
      3.000   1.0  10.0
define a cloud in the layer between 3 and 4 km with sharp boundaries.
