- Naming Conventions for Multiplot ARexx macros:
-
- All Multiplot ARexx macros should be named with the suffix ".mpt".
- In order to make the invokation of Multiplot macros easier, it
- was decided to use a naming convention which indicates the
- requirements for each macro as a prefix. For example:
-
- Startup Macros
- Macros which may only be called from the STARTUP option on the
- workbench or CLI should begin with the prefix "Startup".
-
- eg: StartupReadTable.mpt
-
- Macros Requiring a Single Point Selected
- Macros which require a single point to be selected should be named
- with the prefix "Point".
-
- eg: PointTrunkateSet.mpt
-
-
- Macros Requiring a Fixed Number of Points Selected
- Macros which require a given number of points to be selected should
- be named with the prefix "nPoints", where n is the number of points.
-
- eg: 2PointsSlope.mpt
-
- Macros Requiring Multiple (but unspecified numbers of Points Selected
- Macros which require a multiple but variable numbers of points to be
- selected should be named with the prefix "NPoints"
- be named with the prefix "NPoints".
-
- eg: NPointsExtract.mpt
-
- Macros Requiring Set/s to be Selected
- Similar rules apply, except use the word "Set" instead of "Point".
-
- eg: SetScaleX.mpt
- 2SetsJoin.mpt
- NSetsExtract.mpt
-
- Macros with no Requirements
- If the macro does not require user selection to be run, the macro
- name should be prefixed with an underscore "_".
-
- eg: _DoubleYAxes.mpt
