Annotation of 43BSDTahoe/new/X/xgedit/format.doc, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       root        1: Extremely brief summary of format of .def files:
                      2: 
                      3: | anything... <newline>
                      4: 
                      5:        comment.  everything through next newline ignored.
                      6: 
                      7: d name
                      8: 
                      9:        define, "name" is name of object which most programs ignore, taking
                     10:        the name of the object from the name of the file instead.
                     11: 
                     12: e
                     13: 
                     14:        end of file.
                     15: 
                     16: m x y
                     17: 
                     18:        move current position to x,y.
                     19: 
                     20: l x y
                     21: 
                     22:        line from current point to specified coordinate.  Updates
                     23:        current position.
                     24: 
                     25: A x y arc
                     26: 
                     27:        arc from current point to specified coordinate.  "arc" specifies
                     28:        how big arc should be -- 2048 units in a full circle.  For example,
                     29:        if arc=1024, a semicircle is drawn starting from the current
                     30:        coord and proceeding clockwise to specified coordinate.  Current
                     31:        position is updated.
                     32: 
                     33: c orient label
                     34: 
                     35:        character label.  orient is one of {c, t, b} x {c, l, r} where
                     36:        c=center, t=top, b=bottom, l=left, r=right.  Orient specifies where
                     37:        the current position lies with respect to label.  Label is a
                     38:        character string (no surrounding quotes!) with spaces replaced by
                     39:        "~" chars.
                     40: 
                     41: 
                     42: i name scale orient
                     43: 
                     44:        instatiate subpicture.  "name" is name of subpicture which should be
                     45:        found in file name.def.  scale is a pair of integers separated by
                     46:        colon (eg, 2:1), all coords of subpicture are multiplied first number
                     47:        and then divided by the second (so 2:1 will double the size of the
                     48:        subpicture).  orient specifies one of n, e, s, w, rn, re, rs, rw
                     49:        where r indicates reversal about y axis before specified rotation.
