* CTB Make for use with GEM Spooler v2.0 *

What ?
------
CTBMAKE converts CTS files to CTB files. CTS files are ASCII files
that describe how an ASCII character should be sent to the printer.
They are the "source" for the GEM Spooler character translation
files: *.CTB
Syntax of a CTS file
--------------------
* marks a line of comment
xxx x: 0, 1, ..., 9 is a decimal number representing an ASCII code
= equals
Example:
* Character Table Source file (CTS) for Epson printers
* December 1991
*
* Replace the Pt sign with the German B
174 = 27, 55, 2,
126,
27, 55, 0
As illustrated in the example, the list of codes may be longer
than one line...
Starting CTBMAKE
----------------
CTBMAKE.TTP is a program that needs parameters... The syntax is:
[drive:path]infile [drive:path]outfile
If you run CTBMAKE from the desktop:
Double click CTBMAKE.TTP and a command line will appear; enter
the source path and the destination and answer OK.
From a TOS shell:
Enter "CTBMAKE infile outfile" on the prompt line and press the
RETURN or ENTER key. Example:
ctbmake c:\spooler.cts\epson.cts c:\spooler.ctb\epson.ctb
Read the GEM Spooler manual for further information on Character
Tables.
