This folder contains resources to help you develop your own Filters.
Read the Filter Writers Quick Start document first. This will give you a good general overview of what a Filter is composed of and how to put it together. This may be all you need. A more comprehensive document called the ╥Filter Writers Guide╙ or ╥Filter Writers Reference╙ is in the making and can be found at the TopSoft home ftp locations. (topsoft.org) You can also get further aid at the TopSoft web pages:

The Filter Writers Kit contain a simple project that can be used as a starting point for creating your own filter. There is a CodeWarrior stationary file in there that you can use to start all your filter projects with. That document will set the project preferences to those needed for filters. Read the instructions file in that folder to use the kit.
