Hi, I want to write an importer/writer for DP transaction logs in ruby, and to do that, I need to know the markup of the file. Is there anything more I need to know besides:
- Line begins with: =<panelnr>= - Field seperator is: *<fieldnr> - Record seperator is: ** - Field contents is in quotes: "name" - Quoted text in fields is double quoted, like: ""hello"" And some questions I have: New lines in multiline fields, both have \r\n and the string CR. I don't quite see the logic which is used when. What exactly is the character encoding? I started DP with the /w flag, which causes reports to be written in latin1, but it doesn't seem to help with transaction logs. Is this a conscience choice, seeing as how importing back from a WP merge file containing latin1 fails? Any help is appreciated. _______________________________________________ Dataperf mailing list [email protected] http://lists.dataperfect.nl/mailman/listinfo/dataperf
