- RB2NG.PAS, RB2NG.EXE Version 1.01
-
- Converts the Text Ralf Brown Interrupt Lists into one .NG file for
- use with NG or EH. This program requires the NGML (Norton Guides
- Menu Linker) and the NGC (Norton Guides Compiler). It also requires
- 10 megabytes of free disk space.
-
- If you don't have the NGC or the NGML, you might be able to find a
- copy already compiled in the same place that you found this program.
-
- Simply type
-
- RB2NG
-
- to load the program. Specify the source path, where the text files
-
- INTERRUP.A,B,C...
-
- are to be found.
-
- Then specify an output directory. This could be a temporary
- directory that you have created.
-
- The program reads the text files and creates files that can be
- compiled with the NGC in the specified output directory. It also
- creates a batch file, CRB.BAT, which compiles and links the .NG
- file. Simply type
-
- CRB
-
- in the output directory (with NGC and NGML on the path) and the .NG
- file will be created.
-
- You are welcome to use this program freely but a postcard would be
- appreciated. You are also welcome to fiddle with the source code, as
- long as you don't redistribute the modified code. If you have any
- ideas you would like me to add, simply EMail them to me. I will put
- in the cross-referencing if there is enough interest in the program.
-
- The code requires the Pure Power String Unit Version 1.04. This is
- available at many FTP sites and BBS's as PSSTR104.ARJ.
-
-
- CONVERT.TXT
-
- RB2NG looks in a file called CONVERT.TXT. In this file are case
- convertions. Because RB2NG converts the all uppercase RB List to
- lowercase, some words are converted incorrectly. For example, BIOS
- becomes Bios. Thus, to fix things like this, CONVERT.TXT contains
-
- Bios|BIOS
-
- which converts the text to the correct word. You may have up to 99
- corrections in the file.
