7.6.1 Naming
and defining text formats
Define text formats in a text-format
configuration file referenced from your project configuration file (or
from another text-format template) as follows:
[Templates]
; Formats = path to file specifying properties of text formats.
Formats = path/to/mytextformats.ini
See §7.2 Working
with format configuration files.
When you define a new character format,
give it a name that ends in Char. The
Char suffix
is required for character format names. Any format defined in a configuration
file accessed via [Templates]Formats
is considered to be a paragraph format unless the name ends in Char.
The conventional suffix for paragraph
format names is Para; however,
paragraph format names do not require a suffix.
