text_file_libraries
A text file library is a group of screen's all compiled into one large file, it could be all your ANSI, RIP, AVATAR files compiled into one, or all into separate groups, depending on what it is you want to separate out of each file. There are a few major step's and a few small step's of which will be detailed below. 1. Create the screen's that you want to have as a menu screen set, set them into a directory separate from all the other's, and place all file's that you want to have in this TOME. 2. Using the INIQLIB program, create a TOME by entering in a file name to be created, and then the path of the files that will be placed into the TOME. You will be asked to enter in a description of the TOME, and to enter in the author of the TOME, meaning the creator of all the text files. 3. Place the TOME into the LIBS sub-directory in Iniquity's main directory. 4. Load the system configuration and switch to the Miscellaneous Option's Menu, and activate option [H], Use TextFile Libraries. Note: Iniquity will, when the text file libraries are active, always look in a user's selected TOME for the screen that is to be displayed. If Iniquity can not find the file in the TOME, then it will look in the TEXT directory for the file, so it's always good to have spare file's in there for back up cases.
