| NOTE ABOUT THE FORMAT OF THIS FILE |
|---|
WSPACE.VTF is an example of documenting macros in a compilable .VTF file by adding text after the [@12] macro, where VMC.COM stops compiling. The [@12] macro "place" must be occupied to satisfy VMC.COM, even if only by a blank "[@12]<Esc >[ ----- ]<N>" for example. |
| EDITING THE MACROS |
--> file mode /N recommended
--> macros start from top of file, line 1 column 1
--> macros start in column 1 and use one line each
--> no blank lines between macros
--> macros must be in the same sequence as the 48 macros here
--> but not all macro keys have to be used (less than 48 lines OK)
--> [@12] macro is required (it can be non-functional) to stop VMC's
processing, permitting unlimited documentation to follow
Find and replace can be used to adapt these macros to your system. The
only path hard-coded into the macros and text is "c:\v\", which is my VDE
directory. The explicit path for this file, WSPACE.VTF, in the [Ld/Comp]
macro, should be the VDE directory since it becomes the path of the
compiled WSPACE.VDF. Likwise, the other macros and the documentation in
the "macro operations" category should reference your VDE directory
In the other macros, the hard-coded path need not be the VDE directory.
The phrase "** User editing" marks the specific notes about adapting
each macro to your system.
Once the hard-coded drive and VDE directory path references have been
updated to match your system, this .VTF is ready to compile.
Please refer to Evan Slawson's VMC.DOC for details of the .VTF format for
macro source files, how to compile and decompile VDE macros, etc.
There is a <vfx> section (index) at the end of this file, ready for use if
you already have the [vfxFind] macro installed. The [vfxFind] macro is also
included here at [^12].

WORKSPACE
[F01]<Esc >[LnkAltL] ___________________________________________________________
After confirmation, [LnkAltL] opens the path\filename.ext where the cursor
is positioned. Handles long path and file names, wildcards, file modes,
[search targets], multiple files. [LnkAltL] is for use with workspace file
WSP.V and all other files containing links.
See [</>WspV] macro for navigation note.
[F01]<Esc >[LnkAltL]<N>
[Esc]= ] ;quit if cursor is on a space
[Esc]| ;mark current file for segment navigation
[Esc]$1 ;trap error moving left from first byte of file
[Esc]> < ;search left for char with ASCII value <= 20h (space)
^D ;one char right to exclude the "stop" character
[Esc]1 ;main process
[Esc]$$
[Esc]=<S ;if "<" precedes path\filename, go to (S)pace process
^KB[Esc]> > ;else start block, search right for ASCII <= 20h

[Esc]S ;(S)pace process
^D^KB ;exclude "<" and begin block
[Esc]~>> ;search right for closing ">"
[Esc]X
^KK[AltL]^[ ;end block, input block at [AltL] prompt
The information in Eric Meyer's VDE.DOC, about opening files from the DOS
command line, also applies to input at the AltL prompt of [LnkAltL].
Specific references:
<c:\v\vde.doc[=== 4. DOS SYNTAX ===]>
<c:\v\vde.doc[=== 5. BEYOND DOS ===]>
For [LnkAltL], links should simply be valid for VDE. In addition, links
that contain space(s) must be <enclosed in angle brackets>. To select a
link for [LnkAltL], put the cursor anywhere in it, but always to the left
of any space, and run the macro.
Example link:
VDE.DOC (if on the same dir as the current file)
C:\V\VDE.DOC
The link must be separated from its surroundings, left and right.
Common valid separators (preceding character) on the left end:
+ the end of the preceding line
+ space
+ tab
+ nothing (when the link starts at the top of a file)
Common valid separators (following character) on the right end:
+ the end of the line
+ space
+ tab
A line-drawing character, for example, can't be the character preceding or
following a link, because [LnkAltL] would include it in the block.
[LnkAltL] blocks your link and inputs it at the AltL prompt. Press [Enter]
to confirm, or edit the entry at the prompt (for example, add a /file mode
or [search target], or replace the filename or extension with `wildcard(s)
to get the VDE browser in that path), or press [Esc] to cancel.
Examples: C:\V\VDE.DOC C:\V\VDE.DOC/D C:\V\*.DOC C:\V\*.DOC/D
If you want to use a wildcard filespec again, simply add it manually to
WSP.V.
Long file names:
The following examples are functionally equivalent as links to open
"c:\v\longfilename.txt" in file mode /N at line [6]:
c:\v\longfilename.txt/N[6]
"c:\v\longfilename.txt"/N[6]
<"c:\v\longfilename.txt"/N[6]>
<c:\v\longfilename.txt /N[6]>
<c:\v\longfilename.txt[6] /N>
All are valid under Windows 9x or above, except NT, to open file
LONGFILENAME.TXT in VDE mode /N and position the cursor on line 6.
[LnkAltL] requires <angle brackets> around a link containing space(s).
There are other valid variations not included above. The examples show that
VDE accepts "quotes" even if they are not needed, and the [LnkAltL] and
[BlkWord] macros accept <angle brackets> even if they are not needed.
VDE requires "quotes" around a long filename that contains spaces,
commas, or square brackets '[]'.
Example: <"C:\MY DOCUMENTS\WORD PROCESSING.TXT">
If you have added a [search string] that includes a space, enclose the
entire link in <angle brackets> regardless of whether there are other
spaces in the link.
Example: <C:\V\LOG.TXT[LAST YEAR]>
A long file name can be followed by a file mode or [search target], after
the closing quotation marks.
Example: <"c:\my documents\letters\city library.doc"/m[card]>
A wildcard filespec (to invoke the VDE file browser) must be in 8.3 format.
Examples: c:\mydocu~1\*.doc (NOT <"c:\my documents\*.doc">)
<c:\mydocu~1 /m> browses files and subdirs, opens in mode /M
Multiple files on one line can be separated by commas and/or spaces, but
not by hard [Tab]s.
Examples: c:\v\vde.doc,c:\v\*.vtf
<c:\v\vde.doc c:\v\*.vtf>
<c:\v\vde.doc, *.vtf>
Each opens vde.doc, then displays the file browser for .VTF files. The
third example shows how the previous filespec's path carries over to the
next link.
Wildcard links can precede specific links.
Example: c:\v\*.vtf,vde.doc
First, displays the browse screen (*.vtf wildcard). Whenever you complete
browse screen operations (including multiple selections or [Esc] to make
no selection), C:\V\VDE.DOC will be opened. Since there are no spaces,
<angle brackets> aren't needed.
LFN length limitation: The VDE input line (where [LnkAltL] inputs the
path\filename.ext) is limited to 127 characters. However, a Windows LFN
may have up to 253 characters.

[@01]<Esc >[Find^Rm] ___________________________________________________________
If [LnkAltL] attempts to open a file at a [text string], but encounters an
Invalid Filespec error because the file is already open, you can use the
[Find^Rm] macro to perform a global, multifile search for the [text
string]. This only works with text strings, which feed into a virtual ^QF
command, not page or line numbers, which feed into a virtual ^QI command.
[Find^Rm] is also a convenient way to extend any previously non-global or
single-file search.
[@01]<Esc >[Find^Rm]<N>
[AltN] ;start the global multifile search in the next file
^QF^R[Enter]gm[Enter] ; segment, to avoid "finding" the search string
; in the [LnkAltL] filespec[target]. Reiterating the
; search will ultimately return to the origin.
[F06]<Esc >[</>WspV] ___________________________________________________________
[</>WspV] is the "shuttle" macro, using VDE's segment navigation tools.
See <c:\v\vde.doc[SEGMENT NAVIGATION (Esc|,\,/,]>.
If there is a navigation mark in any segment other than the one from
which [</>WspV] is run, [</>WspV] simply uses [Esc]/ to shuttle between
the current segment and the marked segment. Examples:
(1) If used immediately after [LnkAltL] has added a file, [</>WspV]
switches back and forth between the newly opened file and the file
containing the the link from which [LnkAltL] was run. This makes it
easy to cursor to a different link to open another file.
(2) If used immediately after [Add2Wsp] or [LFN2Wsp], [</>WspV] switches
back and forth between the newly listed link on WSP.V and the file
just listed. This makes it easy to edit the link, for example to add a
comment or [page] or [line] number, then switch back to the file.
(3) If the shuttle is between WSP.V and file A, but you want to shuttle
between files A and B, [</>WspV] to WSP.V, then navigate manually to
file B using AltN, AltB, or AltK. Now the shuttle is between files A
and B.
If [</>WspV] is run from the segment marked for navigation, or there is no
navigation mark in any segment, then [Esc]/ can't work. [</>WspV] solves
the problem as follows:
(1) If [</>WspV] is run from any file OTHER THAN WSP.V, it sets up a
shuttle between that file and WSP.V. If WSP.V is not open,
[</>WspV] will open it. In other words, WSP.V is the default
shuttle "partner" when a simple [Esc]/ doesn't work.
(2) If [</>WspV] is run from WSP.V itself, it sets up a shuttle
between WSP.V and the next segment (reached by AltN). If that's
not where you wanted to go, navigate to the preferred segment
manually using AltN, AltB, or AltK. [</>WspV] will then shuttle
between that segment and WSP.V.

** User editing of the [Add2Wsp] macro:
Edit the "c:\v\" path for WSP.V and WSP.XF as needed.
Unlike [Sav2Wsp], [Add2Wsp] requires at least one file segment to be
available for WSP.V.
[Add2Wsp] saves the file being listed. To prevent any change to the file on
disk, make it read-only.
[Add2Wsp] will end with an Invalid Filespec error if run from an untitled
file. Solution: Name the file (^KE) and re-run.
If run from file WSP.V, [Add2Wsp] does nothing (does not list WSP.V on
itself).
[^02]<Esc >[LFN2Wsp] ___________________________________________________________
[LFN2Wsp] is the long file name (LFN) version of [Add2Wsp]. It appends the
LFN path\filename.ext of the current file to file WSP.V, enclosing the link
in "quotes" and <angle brackets>.
The LFN and the DOS 8.3 versions of filespecs are equally usable by VDE.
The LFN has the advantage of being the constant, "real" filename when a
file with LFN is moved to a different directory or file system.

http://www.highfiber.com/~raster/freeware.htm
Unlike [Sav2Wsp], [LFN2Wsp] requires at least one file segment to be
available for WSP.V.
[LFN2Wsp] saves the file being listed. To prevent any change to the file on
disk, make it read-only.
[LFN2Wsp] will end with an Invalid Filespec error if run from an untitled
file. Solution: Name the file (^KE) and re-run.

Edit the "c:\v\" path for WSP.V as necessary.
The [Sav2Wsp] macro works without WSP.V being open, thus making all 8 file
segments available for workspace files.
If [Sav2Wsp] encounters an untitled file, it will end with an Invalid
Filespec error. Solution: Name the file (^KE) or abandon it (^KQ), then run
[Sav2Wsp] again to list, save, and close all remaining open files.
[Sav2Wsp] saves each open file. To prevent any change to the file(s) on
disk, make them read-only.

[LocFils] uses LOCATE.COM to create a file consisting of a list of files.
The macro consists of a single DOS command, which is displayed in the
VDE AltR shell and can be edited on the fly before it's executed.
Refer to Charles Dye's <c:\v\locate.txt[OPTIONS (IN DEPTH)]> for full
information on the /D-, /D:, /O: and other options. The file selection and
list options used in this [LocFils] implementation are:
"." refers to current VDE shell path
"/D-" excludes subdirectories
"/D:T-60" includes files dated within the last 60 days
"/O:" macro substitutions generate to the list for each file:
"&7" file date in YYYY-MM-DD format
"&8" file time
"&5" file size
"&F" fully qualified path\filename
"&W" Windows LFN
"SORT /R" sorts the list to reverse date/time (latest first)
The fully qualified path\filename is a link, ready for the [LnkAltL]
macro.

LINES AND PARAGRAPHS
[F02]<Esc >[Pgf Fmt] ___________________________________________________________
[Pgf Fmt] reformats the current paragraph, then centers the cursor line
vertically.
Exception: Lines ending with a hard return are not reformatted; the cursor
skips to the next line, column 1. (You can use ^B to reformat such lines.
The macro skips them in case they are divider lines, math expressions, or
some other text that should remain on a single line.)

[@08]<Esc >[SoftCRs] ___________________________________________________________
From the cursor line down, [SoftCRs] ends each line, except the last line
of the paragraph (the last line before a blank line), with a "soft" CR (one
space followed by [CR/LF]). Lines that already end with a soft CR are
unchanged. When [SoftCRs] encounters a blank line, it returns the cursor to
the last line of the paragraph and ends.
[SoftCRs] differs from ^OY^B (Hard Reform mode plus reformat) in that it
softens the CRs without reformatting. Thus it can be used to prepare a
paragraph for [RefmtRM]. Note that [SoftCRs] processes only from the
current line down, not necessarily the entire paragraph.
Caution: [SoftCRs] expects a blank line to separate paragraphs. (^OY,
unlike [SoftCRs], recognizes a change of indentation as marking a new
paragraph.)

[@09]<Esc >[RefmtRM] (for VDE 1.95 and later) __________________________________
Without using specific left or right margin values, the [RefmtRM] macro
reformats the current paragraph, using VDE's auto-set command (^OW) to set
the left margin and a user's place mark (^KM) to set the right margin.
Before running [RefmtRM], the user manually sets a place mark at the
desired right margin column. The place mark is effective for the current
file segment, and can be anywhere in the segment. There can be other place
marks in the segment, but the one used by [RefmtRM] must be the first.
Also, since VDE will find and use the existing left margins and indents,
they must be correct (have the correct "shape") before [RefmtRM] is used.
Although [RefmtRM] processes a single paragraph on each run, it is designed
to reformat up to an entire segment, from the current paragraph down, while
the function key is held.
[RefmtRM] does not produce the desired outcome in the following case:
A one-line paragraph that should have a hanging indent, after
reformatting to a reduced right margin, will instead wrap to column 1
for the second and subsequent lines.
Suggested solution: If there are paragraphs nearby that already have the
desired hanging indent, running [RefmtRM] to reformat one of them will
leave the margins set correctly to manually reformat the erstwhile
one-line paragraph that has now wrapped to column 1.

[Txt2Rlr] sets margins and tabs from a two-line text ruler.
Caution:
This macro uses the Block Zoom command, but does not protect against Block
Zoom already being set. It won't work correctly if Block Zoom is already in
effect.
Example of a text ruler used by this macro: Put the cursor on the first of
the two lines (the "L R" line) and run the macro.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
L R
! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To leave the current tabs and change only the margin(s), leave the second
line blank (hard return [CR/LF] in column 1).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
L R
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To have NO tabs set, put a single "!" in column 1 of the second line.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
L R
!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To change only the left or right margin, put just the "L" or the "R" in the
first line.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To leave the margins unchanged and clear all tabs:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To do nothing if run accidentally:

Here, the "ruler" is two lines of text, with no "!" on the second line and
no "L" or "R" on the first line. The [Txt2Rlr] macro does nothing.

Normal marking: arrow down column 1 while depressing the [Shift] key. The
box is always drawn from column 1 and a one-column border separates the box
from the text. Therefore, at least one line of text should usually begin in
column 1 to avoid too much white space on the left. After it's drawn, the
entire box can be moved or copied as a block, or indented, centered, or set

[!04]<Esc >[BlkBoxT] ___________________________________________________________
[BlkBoxT] uses non-graphics characters to draw a box around blocked lines.
Example: +-----------+
| [BlkBoxT] |
+-----------+
The block must consist of one or more entire lines ending with a [CR/LF].
Normal marking: arrow down column 1 while depressing the [Shift] key. The
box is always drawn from column 1 and a one-column border separates the box
from the text. Therefore, at least one line of text should usually begin in
column 1 to avoid too much white space on the left. After it's drawn, the
entire box can be moved or copied as a block, or indented, centered, or set
flush right line by line.

INSERT DATE OR CALENDAR
[^08]<EscD>[Dat:Cal] ___________________________________________________________
[Dat:Cal] is a "menu" macro. At the "? Esc!" prompt:
Press D to insert the current date.
Press C to insert the current month's calendar.
Date and time format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM
Example: If [AltD] [AltT] inserts 6/15/07 21:16 at the cursor,
then [Dat:Cal] will insert 2007-06-15 21:16
followed by a hard return.
Purpose: Simplifies sorting lines by date and time.

** User editing to install VDE for the [Dat:Cal] macro:
The macro's Date editing requires VDE to be set by VINST so that
AltD returns the date in the numeric U.S. month/day/year format.
As noted in the comments, macro can be edited to insert the date only.
** User editing to install the CAL program for the [Dat:Cal] macro:
Put CAL.COM anywhere on your path.
File "cal.v" is an arbitrary choice; change to suit.

[2Win ^X] moves the cursor down one line in both VDE windows, in column 1.
Hold down the macro key for synchronized scrolling. May be most useful
when using [AltM] to compare document files that have relatively few
differences. (In nondocuments, [AltM] skips to the next line in each
window, after finding the first difference in the current line.)

VFX INDEX
[^11]<Esc >[vfxList] ___________________________________________________________
[^12]<Esc >[vfxFind] ___________________________________________________________
[vfxFind] uses a list of long search strings, the "<vfx> section," as an
index for finding matching strings (topics) in the reference file to which
the <vfx> section is appended. The <vfx> section at the end of this file
is a working example.
The following [vfxList] macro was used in to build the <vfx> lookup list:
[^11]<Esc >[vfxList]<QN>^QS^KB^X^KK^KW+vfx.t[Enter]
This macro blocks the current line in the reference (main) file and adds
that line to file VFX.T. To create a <vfx> index, go to the end of the main
file, type in <vfx> as the ID, then on the next line use ^KR to import file
VFX.T. Note that the lines listed in the <vfx> section need not be in the
same order as they appear in the main text, and the lines can appear more
than once (for example, names might be sorted both by first and last name).
To start or re-initialize the [vfxFind] macro, run it while the cursor is
on any blank line.
To select a line in the <vfx> section and execute the lookup, place the
cursor anywhere on the topic lookup line and press the [vfxFind] key.
On the next press of the same function key, [vfxFind] returns to the lookup
line (which is still highlighted) as the starting point for another lookup.
(The exception would be if there has been an intervening Find command,
which would change the stored lookup string.)

** User editing of the [vfxFind] macro:
The search commands commented above should be case-sensitive for greatest
precision. The Adaptive search mode, new in VDE 1.95, works well and, if
selected in VINST, makes any reference to case in [vfxFind] unnecessary.

CLIPBOARD ACCESS FOR VDE IN WINDOWS 2000 AND XP
[!12]<Esc >[v.v:WRZ] ___________________________________________________________
The [v.v:WRZ] macro uses Horst Schaeffer's ClipText utility to provide VDE
with Clipboard access under Windows NT/2000/XP.
After starting the macro, respond to the "? Esc!" prompt in the header by
pressing W, R, or Z:
[W]rite: Marked block in the current VDE file is the source:
Selected VDE text is APPENDED to file C:\V\V.V
CLIPTEXT then OVERWRITES the Clipboard with C:\V\V.V
Use [Z]ap before [W]rite IF ONLY the CURRENT marked
block should be copied into the Clipboard, not an
accumulation of entries.
[R]ead: The current VDE file is the target:
CLIPTEXT APPENDS the Clipboard contents to file C:\V\V.V
VDE then reads C:\V\V.V at the cursor and marks the
incoming text as a block.
Use [Z]ap before [R]ead IF ONLY the CURRENT Clipboard
contents should be pasted into VDE, not an
accumulation of entries.
[Z]ap: Erases file C:\V\V.V but does NOT access the Clipboard

** User editing to install the [v.v:WRZ] macro:
Edit the "c:\v\" path for file V.V as needed.
File C:\V\V.V is an arbitrary choice, but whatever file is used, it's
necessary to state the full path in the macro. Reason: The ^KW and ^KR path
is the path of the current file, whereas the [AltR] shell path is set when
the VDE session is started, subject to being changed later by other DOS
commands.
** Download CLIPTEXT.EXE and CLIPTEXT.TXT:
http://home.mnet-online.de/horst.muc/wbat32.htm#cliptext
Put CLIPTEXT.EXE anywhere on your path.
The ClipText /OEM option causes extended ASCII characters to be translated.
I've included it in both the [W]rite and [R]ead routines.
The initial ^KS in [R]ead is a safety feature, making it possible to use
^KL^F to status back from a Read/Only lockup in case of Graphics Overflow
due to too many different translatable extended ASCII characters in the
source text.
The macro is as useful for communicating among multiple VDE sessions as it
is between VDE and Windows applications, but since file C:\V\V.V
accumulates in both Write and Read, remember to Zap just before Read so
that only one copy (the one in the Windows Clipboard) of the text from the
other VDE session will be pasted.

[AltR]VTF2VDK[Enter][Esc] ;run VTF2VDK.BAT
[AltU]Lt.vdk[Enter] ;load t.vdk, prompt to Use or store to a key
To use [vtfLoad], start with a macro in single line .VTF format, always
designated [F01]. Block that one line, then run [vtfLoad]. The VMC
compiler screen display will pause for inspection. Press any key to
continue. After VTF2VDK.BAT runs, the macro will start the process of
loading T.VDK, displaying the usual prompts. You can store the macro to any
function key, or (U)se it without assigning it to a key.
** User editing to install VTF2VDK.BAT for the [vtfLoad] macro:
Edit path "c:\v\" in the macro to match your VDE directory.
Export (^KW) the following text as VTF2VDK.BAT to a directory
on your DOS path:
:: VTF2VDK.BAT used by the [vtfLoad] macro
:: Compiles T.VTF to T.VDF, renames as T.VDK
:: Revise VDE directory if not c:\v\
@echo off
c:

[@04]<Esc >[vtf<vdk] ___________________________________________________________
The purpose of [vtf<vdk] is to facilitate decompiling a single installed
macro to .VTF format.

[AltL][^Enter] ;open an empty untitled file
^KRc:\v\t.vtf[Enter] ;read file c:\v\t.vtf
First, use the AltU [S]ave command and follow the prompts to save the macro
to file T.VDK. Then run [vtf<vdk]. You must have one unused file segment
available. The macro opens an untitled file and reads in the newly
decompiled macro, which will always be designated as [F01] regardless of
where it is assigned.
Caution: VMC decompiles the ^[ command (to input the current block at a
prompt) as the Esc character. This must be manually corrected before using
a .VTF created by decompiling. There may be other inconsistencies.
Carefully review decompiled macro code. However, [vtf<vdk] is handy when
you have created or modified a macro from the keyboard and want to save it
in text form.
** User editing to install VDK2VTF.BAT for the [vtf<vdk] macro:
Edit path "c:\v\" in the macro to match your VDE directory.
Export (^KW) the following text as VDK2VTF.BAT to a directory
on your DOS path:

[@12]<Esc >[Ld/Comp] ___________________________________________________________

Slawson's VMC.DOC to [Ld/Comp] (Load or Compile).

[Esc]C
[Esc]$$
^KS[AltR]vmc ^F[Enter][Esc]
[AltU]L^F[Bksp][Bksp]df[Enter]
Load: If the source .VTF of the macro set (.VDF) you are currently using is
_not_ open, the macro opens it as an additional file. This avoids
navigating to find and open the .VTF for editing. (See "Setting up
[Ld/Comp]" below.)
Compile: If the .VTF is already open, the macro in trying to load it
encounters an Invalid Filespec error, whereupon it compiles the .VTF and
loads the updated .VDF.
CAUTION: Even though the [Ld/Comp] macro is specific about which .VTF to
open for editing, it is _not_ specific about which .VTF to compile and
load; the macro compiles and loads the .VTF that is the current .VTF from
which you run the macro. For example, you might run [Ld/Comp] to load the
.VTF for the current macro set, then [AltL] to open another .VTF in order
to copy or swap macros between the two .VTFs. When you then run [Ld/Comp]
from _either_ .VTF, that will be the one compiled and loaded. For that
matter, you can run [Ld/Comp] from first one .VTF and then the other. Each
will be compiled by the [Ld/Comp] macro; the last .VTF from which [Ld/Comp]
is run will be the macro set last loaded.
If you want to edit the .VTF of the current macro set and load the changes,
but don't want to overwrite the original .VDF, do the following to protect
the current .VDF:
+ open the current .VTF for editing
+ use ^KE to change the name; for example, to "improved.vtf"
+ edit the [Ld/Comp] macro to reference "improved.vtf"
+ make your changes to the macros in "improved.vtf"
+ run [Ld/Comp]; since the .VTF you started from is no longer
open (you just renamed it), VDE, using the [Ld/Comp] in the
current macro set, opens it from disk; leave it open, but
ignore it and switch ([AltB]) back to "improved.vtf"
+ run [Ld/Comp] to compile and load "improved.vdf" as the current
macro set; your starting macro set .VTF and .VDF are unchanged
+ "improved.vtf" and "improved.vdf" are now saved to disk and
can be reopened / reloaded as needed
** User editing to install the [Ld/Comp] macro:
(1) Make sure that a current .VTF exists for every .VDF.
(2) Add the [Ld/Comp] macro to each .VTF.
(3) In each .VTF, edit its own specific path/filename into its
[Ld/Comp] macro. The path should be your VDE directory.
(4) Save the .VTF and compile it to create the updated .VDF.
In future, when that .VDF is loaded, the [Ld/Comp] macro will automatically
open the corresponding source .VTF.
