The file GEDSET.TXT contains a list of all valid GedCom TAGS as per the
GedCom Standard version 5.3. Most of these TAGS are supported directly
with the Add Structure, INSert record and CONTinue line features in
GedEdit. Should an instance occur where you need to use one of the more
obscure TAGS but you can't find it in any of the GedEdit functions, use
the CONTinue line function, then over-type the CONT tag with the desired
tag.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1) leave one (1) space between the level, tag and data. Example:
1 NOTE Blah, blah, blah blah blah.
^ ^
2) Begin all records with the level flush against left margin.
3) Some tags do not allow following data. For example:
1 BIRT
2 DATE 11 Jan. 1856
The '1 BIRT' tag does not allow any following data. It's purpose is
to serve notice that data pertaining to the birth of this person
follows (ie, the '2 DATE' record). When in doubt, refer to the file
'GEDSTAND.T82', archived in the file 'GEDCOM53.ZIP'.
