- MAP2USES is a simple utility that reads a .MAP file and extracts
- a program's Uses list from it. This is written to a file with the
- extension .USE. The order of the list is the reverse of that in
- the .MAP file. An attempt is made to mix upper and lower case
- letters in the unit names.
-
- The main value of the utility is that it catches all of the unit
- names and includes them in a list of units to be overlaid. Those
- units you do not wish to overlay are included as constants in
- Map2Uses itself. The overlay list contains all of the unit names.
- Those not to be overlaid are "commented out", so that you may
- tweak and tune as needed.
-
- This utility has proven very usesful in maintaining a program
- with over 200 units. Memory is very tight, and with new units
- being added all the time, forgetting to overlay even one can
- cause problems.
-
-
- SPECIAL NOTE TO THE TURBOPOWER GUYS.
- Please include any of your library units that must not be
- overlaid in the appropriate places, around line 60. If you see
- anything really bad in the code, I would appreciate you leeting
- me know.
-
- This utility is not elegant, but it works for me. PSA cannot
- handle my big program, but Map2Uses solves one of my main
- problems.
