PMView: The ultimate in image viewing Major update coming soon! Watch http://www.pmview.com/ for details ********************************************************************* Source: Bareis, Dennis (db0@anz.com) Moderator: Trevor Smith (trevor@haligonian.com) ------------------------------------------------------- PPWIZARD has gone through a "few" more revisions since my last update. The main changes are: * Macros now support "positional" parameters * Many new PPWIZARD header files and other downloads, example of creating HTML pages from WPS URL objects/folders (see http://www.labyrinth.net.au/~dbareis/bookmark.htm) * Can now easily create "html" pass through macros say to validate nesting of table tags without the need to specifically handle each possible tag parameter. * New #DefineRexx and #OneLine commands. * Workaround to Regina's "clause length" feature. * Macro and macro parameter "transformation" facilities allow you to have a single value and modify the way its substituted, for example allow you to store a value such as "1234" and use it in different places as "1234" or "1,234". * Macro and macro parameter names have been case insensitive, this is now the default and they can be made case sensitive. * Bug fixes * Better error reporting and in some cases validation of data. * Better debugging support. * Heaps of other changes. For more information on the changes, have a look at: http://www.labyrinth.net.au/~dbareis/ppwizard/changehistory.htm WHAT IS PPWIZARD? For those that don't as yet know, PPWIZARD is a generic preprocessor. Although most people use it only for HTML, it is also great for rexx code. You can now create header files contain code which you can if you wish conditionally generate (maybe you require different error handling for a particular common routine). It is generic in that it can be used to process any "text" files in any languages, if PPWIZARD's default processing gets in the way then there are many #Option's to change it.
