- OPL+ 1.11 for EPOC32
- Copyright 1998, Andy Clarkson, All Rights Reserved
-
- THIS VERSION IS FOR USE WITH THE SERIES 5 OR GEOFOX ONE. A SEPARATE
- VERSION IS AVAILABLE FOR USE WITH THE EPOC32 EMULATOR.
-
- Description:
-
- OPL+ is an improved development environment for writing OPL code.
- There are two main components to the package:
-
- OPL+ editor
- OPP
-
- The OPL+ editor is similar to the standard Psion Program editor,
- but provides additional facilities, such as auto-layout of OPL code
- and syntax highlighting of lines, e.g. displays all PROC...ENDP
- lines in bold and comments in italic. The editor uses a project
- concept whereby you open a project which contains a number of files.
- You can add and remove files to the project. Note that the editor
- works with TEXT FILES, not Psion Program format files. This is
- deliberate, facilitating the easy transfer of code to and from a
- PC based development environment.
-
- The editor can import and open Psion OPL files. Note that OPL files
- will be opened read-only - use the "Save As" menu option to save
- the file to a text file in order to edit the file.
-
- OPP is the translator back-end used from the OPLPlus editor.
- OPP provides many extensions to the standard OPL language. If you are
- familiar with the operation of a C pre-processor then the function of
- OPP will be immediately clear. OPP provides preprocessor facilites
- as well as extending the OPL language, such as support for
- multi-dimensional arrays and C style structures. Refer to the full
- OPP manual for details which will be installed with the software
- into:
-
- c:\Documents\OPPManual
-
- Note that OPP is supported on a range of platforms including:
-
- EPOC32 (Series 5 & Geofox One)
- EPOC16 (Series 3a/3c & Siena)
- MSDOS (for OPL development on a PC)
-
- Refer to the OPL+ help file installed with the software for
- further details.
-
- Installation:
-
- If you have a PC then double clicking from Windows Explorer
- on a SIS file extracted from the OPLPlus.zip file
- will install the software to your Psion automatically. For
- this to work you will need either PsiWin 2.1 or to have
- previously installed Psion's Message Suite software.
-
- If your PC doesn't recognise the SIS file then download the
- necessary installation software for your PC from:
-
- http://www.psion.com
-
- When installing the software it will ask whether you wish to
- install the OPL help file. This file is large (over 400K) and
- is optional. If you are short of disk space then select "No"
- not to install it. The OPL help file provides a useful keyword
- lookup for all the standard OPL keywords and Psion OPX calls.
- The file was provided by Tim Richardson, for further info see
