ADD_WEIGHT3 (update)
|
|
GHS offers several ways to specify "fixed," that is nonliquid, weights that are
not included in light ship. ADD_WEIGHT
and ADD_WEIGHT3 are two interactive wizards for this purpose.
Here is a sample of the ADD_WEIGHT3 interface: |
|
| And here is the simpler ADD_WEIGHT for comparison: |
|
| Note that ADD_WEIGHT3 includes a Reference location. Reference locations are taken from zero-weight items, which can be made at any time, causing them to appear in the drop-down list of Reference locations. Also frames show up in the list of reference locations (in GHS version is 15.80 or later). |
|
| Another feature of ADD_WEIGHT3 is weight-prefix management: |
|
| Either wizard can be used by itself or with Load Editor: |
|
|
To use ADD_WEIGHT3 with the Load Editor, first
RUN ADD_WEIGHT3.LIB /CALL
then include macros AddWt3 and EditWt3 in your LOAD EDIT command: LOAD (*) EDIT /MACRO:AddWt3,EditWt3 |
