To find the number of source entities for transformation 0 and match 5 for the recursive comparison of surfs 1-20 and 101-120:

*createmark surfs 1 1-20
*createmark surfs 2 101-120
hm_compareinit
hm_compareentitiesrecursive surfs 1 surfs 2 0.1 2 0
set num_source_entities [hm_comparegettransformationmatchentitycount 0 5 1]
hm_compareend
