info_form_screens
Infoform's give you the ablility to ask a user a list of questions and
store them in a file. You are able to view these answers by entering the user
editor, and selecting 'VIEW INFOFORMS', you can choose what infoform you want
to view if you have several to choose from. Iniquity uses an infoform data
file, and an infoform screen, definable by you, in order to display the
screen to the user. There are also limit's that you can impose on an
infoform, forcing a user to answer certain questions, and the like. There are
also code's that are used to help with the input that you can use. These
limitation code's and input code's are explained in the text file sub-section
called 'Info-Forms'. There are a few step's that you must follow in order to
correctly create an info form.
1. Using the Info-Forms editor, create a new Info-Form. Then edit the
information to suit your need's as to the form.
2. Loading an ANSI program, create a screen that with the appropriate
questions and using the appropriate code's at the location where the user
will be typing in the answers.
Note: Be very careful when selecting code's to use as input controllers
as the results could be very strange.
Here is an example of an info-form.
