- This sort of thing is most easily done by customizing the generic reprocessing
- channel into something that does what you want. This functionality isn't
- generally available in PMDF; reprocessing channels were added specifically
- to do this sort of thing.
-
- Some knowledge of PMDF and Pascal is required to do this, of course. We are
- putting the finishing touches on an API for PMDF that will make it much
- easier to do this sort of thing in the future.
