#  Absolute files
   An absolute file contains machine code. When run, it is loaded at
   address &8000,
   and this is where execution starts too.
   Usually these are .aifformat>.

   They can be put into !Boot.Library or in any directory in the
   current path. For temporary use put one in the current directory
   and invoke it by name. Eg see shine

#  Choices configuration file
   Justin Fletcher document on choices here:
   http://gerph.org/info/choices.html

#  creating a module
   see example code:-
    ADFS::HardDisc5.$.PROGRAMZ.JRBASIC.mouse.mousekey
    Basic program by Leo White

#  extracting module from ROM
   1. use Verma
      >>Module >Extract >...

   2. use  StrongED
     menu on icon bar >>create file >Grab memory...
     window pops up with option to obtain ROM or RAM modules

   3. use ZAP
     i>> Create> Get Module> CDFSSoftATAPI
     save from ZAP to disk

# module levels
  AppBasic has facilities for comparing ROM and System levels for
  Toolbox modules


#  !Reporter
    has good stronghelp help manual-
    if not started during boot then start with !! - no windows or icons
    then from task window report
    if you change the choices file then rerun pgm
    you can open the config window from the Strong Help manual

    Perhaps I could just add a bit more detail ...
    First, !Reporter should be dragged from downloaded zip file to your
    hard disc somewhere before starting it. You should also have !Confix
    v0.83 or later installed, and StrongHelp to read the !Help files.

    And to Configure it (Menu -> Config) to log  commands and errors, I
    would Click Boot in the 'Reporter Customisation' window, and ensure
    'Report Commands', 'with Time', 'with Source', and 'Report Errors'
    are all ticked, and also increase the text size to 500KB.

    Then Click 'BootLog', and just tick the
    '      Start Reporter in Boot.!Run'

    Click 'Save' to store the new configuration and !Reporter will make
    some changes, then reboot.

    **** !Run in !Boot may need to be unprotected before saving

    And you should see after Reboot a window with *lots* of commands in
    it, with the time issued, who issued them, and with obey commands
    and errors highlit so they are easy to see.

    If you try it when you do NOT have a problem, it may be useful when
    you  do!       Martin A.


#   TRACE using !Reporter

     *ReportTrace Proc Values
     *ReportTrace ON List
     *Report a$
