Details for advanced users/programmers -------------------------------------- 1) File names : --------------- *.bat(*.sh) files use the vwslk utility. slokas are stored in *.itx files (original ITRANS coding) translations in *.tra files word meanings in *.wrd files The utility does not rely upon the above extensions to get the sloka etc. These extensions are used for better book keeping purpose. The utility rather relies upon the : VERSE_FILE= TRANS_FILE= WORD_FILE= keys found in the *.ini file. The -fi options tells which *.ini file to use. Set these keys appropriately and prepare a new *.bat or *.sh script when you want to use the utility on a different set of files. If you do not have all the *.itx, *.tra or *.wrd files available, you can set these keys to NOT_AVAILABLE for the missing files. 2) Markers ---------- Each sloka/translation/meaning should end with (x.y)|| format (x is the chapter, y is the sloka). Any line beginning with a '\' or '%' is treated as comment. The total count of entries in each of the *.itx/*.tra/*.wrd should be same and this count should be entered in the TOTAL= line in the *.ini file. 3) Current record ------------------ The CURRENT= key in the .ini file indicates the current entry that will be printed when the -d(daily) option is invoked. When -init is invoked this key set to 1. NOTE: vwslk inserts the DAY= entry whenever the program is invoked. You do not have to set it.
