; This file remaps characters in the Inner Mission font
; Inner Mission will read in this file if the command line
; option -Y1 is entered in the IM command line
;
; The characters can be remapped by specifying the new dot
; pattern with .'s and x's, as shown below.
; To remap a character, start with a line beginning with a
; > character. Then the next character after must be a
; character ! thru _ in the ASCII set. This is the character
; that will be remapped. After this line, there must be a
; line with the digits 012345678901. This line cannot be
; omitted. Then come the lines with x's and .'s which specify
; the new character's appearance. There cannot be any extra
; lines or spaces at the beginning of a line.
; To use the newly defined character use IM with the -Y1
; option. Example:
; IM -V0 -Y1 -U0
; This tells IM to not put up the control panel, to read
; in the file IM.DWG (must be in the same dir as IM.EXE), and
; to enter a user message.
; In your user message which you type in, when you use the
; char you redefined, it will come out as you have drawn below.
; for instance if you enter a message with an underscore '_'
; then a mouse will show up on the screen when you hit the
; 'm' key to see the user message.
; If you would like to have different drawings which you
; would like to bring up at different times, just make a batch
; file which copies a new file onto IM.DWG, and pipes in the
; desired user message. Example:
; (Contents of im-mouse.bat)
;
; chdir \IM
; copy mouse.dwg im.dwg
; im -v0 -y1 -u0 < mouse.txt
; chdir \
;
; To use this you would need a drawing file named mouse.dwg
; which is a modified copy of this file. You would also have
; a file called mouse.txt which is the message file.
