Filters help file
—————————————————
This software is COPYRIGHT, but has been released as FREEWARE. Please see the
end of this file for conditions of use and distribution.
The programs in ZF: (Filters.Code) are written to be run by FILTERSEL (in the
module ZapUtils). They may be written in BASIC, or a compiled language such
as C.
The help text is in ZFHelp: (Filters.Docs); each file must have the same
leafname as the filter it contains help on.
Writing your own programs
—————————————————————————
A skeleton BASIC program "Filt_Shell" is supplied for you to build your own
programs around.
Preparing the programs for use
——————————————————————————————
None necessary, unless you run !Zap from floppy, in which case you'll need to
edit Filters.!Run appropriately (just follow the instructions).
Placing the filters in a module
———————————————————————————————
First of all, make sure that Zap's !Boot file has been run.
The program Filters.MakeRes is used here. First, load it into Zap (or Edit),
move to the bottom of the file. Move a few lines up and you will find the
lines
REM Files to include
REM End
Between these lines is a DATA list containing the filter file names. They
must be in the same directory as MakeRes. If you have any to add, insert them
here, then save and run MakeRes. You can load the module ZapFilters straight
away as it doesn't include any Zap commands.
