You may use any ASCII editor to create the index file for DRS.
Most word processors support creating an ASCII file; if your's
does not, you may use the DOS command EDLIN (see your DOS
manual) or the DOS command COPY CON: FILENAME (see your DOS
manual).
The index file has three types of lines. The first type of
line is the TITLE line. It's format is the word TITLE (in
uppercase) followed by a comma, followed by the text you wish
to show for a title. ie:
TITLE,description
When you place a TITLE line in the index file, DRS will show
the description on the menu brighter than the other lines.
This is useful for categorizing the files and showing a title
for each category.
The second type of line is the filename line. It's format is
a valid DOS filename, followed by a comma, followed by a
description of the file. When you place this line in the
index file, DRS will show the description only to the user.
When the user places the cursor bar on the description and
presses return, the file will be displayed using the LIST
command.
The last type of line is the END line. This line simply
consists of the word END and must be used as the last line of
your index file.
You may choose any filename you wish for the index file
itself. To tell DRS to use your index file, simply type DRS
followed by the name of the index file. ie:
DRS REPORTS
If you do not type a filename after DRS, the Document Review
system will use the index file named DRS.DRS. This file
currently contains the index information for the DRS
documentation.
