Comments in Variable file?

(1/1)

P#m3t4p6:
Mouser,

Is it possible to add a comment line in the variable file?  For example - using a semicolon as the first character in the line?

; Comment line - ignored by "TheFormLetterMachine"

I am working on creating two configuration trees and I plan on submitting them and associated variable files to you for examples to use for newbies.

Awaiting your reply,
Ben

mouser:
great idea, and i'd love some example files!
i will add support for skipping over comments as you say.

mouser:
ps - i'm definitely looking for suggestions for improving the forum letter machine, so if you have some ideas, do let me know.

I found that any line that does not have an "=" sign is listed in the Value field.  Unfortunately, this takes up space in the Key/Variables window.  It would be helpful if a character could be defined so that the line would be ignored.

mouser:
yep, i will do as you say and make it ignore lines with ;
it will be updated in next version.
