Par2: Template to create help file context strings and write to ASCII
1999-03-12 -- Craig Ransom
1. Here's where you can download Help Magician Pro demo version.

2. Data Ferret Templates (They're SHORT)
#TEMPLATE(TDFAppHelpTpl,'Data Ferret Applications Help Magician TPL')
#!-------------------------------------------
#!Run this with app loaded to build .txt file for import to
#!HMPro95
#UTILITY(TDFAppHelp,'Data Ferret: Create Help Magician Import File')
#DECLARE(%WinTitle)
#DECLARE(%ContextID)
#SET(%ContextID,1000)
#CREATE(%Application & '.txt')
#FOR(%Procedure)
#IF(%Window)
#SET(%WinTitle,EXTRACT(%WindowStatement,'WINDOW',1))
#IF (NOT %WinTitle)
#SET(%WinTitle,EXTRACT(%WindowStatement,'APPLICATION',1))
#ENDIF
#IF(%WinTitle)
#SET(%WinTitle,SUB(%WinTitle,2,LEN(%WinTitle)-2))
#SET(%ContextID,%ContextID+1)
\Title: %WinTitle
\Context Number: %ContextID
\Context String: %Procedure
%WinTitle
#ENDIF
#ENDIF
#ENDFOR
#CLOSE
#!-------------------------------------------
#!Add this template at the GLOBAL level of your app to populate to ALL
#!procedures!!
#EXTENSION(TDFAddHelp,'Data Ferret: Add PROP:Hlp to
App'),DESCRIPTION('Data Ferret: Add PROP:Hlp = ~ProcedureName'),FIRST
#AT(%BeforeAccept)
0{PROP:Hlp} = '~%Procedure'
#ENDAT
I checked, there should be no "wrapped" lines!
And that's IT. Or THEM as the case may be!
