If a convention name is given there are two possible results If the cv conv file exists in the CVPATH directory and if the SET codes mentioned are already used in the SET file the cv conv file is not updated But if new codes are needed the CONVENTION file is updated If cv conv does not exist it is created in the first directory mentioned in the CVPATH SET User Guide 4 7 Using The CONVENTION File PUT SET and the CONVENTION File The consequences for the SET file are e The character string 25 cv conv appears in sub block 9920 The entity properties are transferred by sub block 520 Example 1 520 18 ATTRIBUTE TERMTYPE 1 89 125 Instead of referencing the character font block type or the standard principal font as in the previous versions where there was no CONVENTION file the corresponding name of the character font is found in the CONVENTION file Example 2 101 TF6 This example uses line fonts Every time a line type is referenced or standard line number is referenced the corresponding name of the line font is found in the CONVENTION file 09900 H9906 LIB NOM1 NOMi 4 8 SET User Guide Using The CONVENTION File GET SET and the CONVENTION File GET SET and the CONVENTION File In the gsetparams file the keyword CONVENTION FILE gives the default convention name The default is used when the CONVENTION file specified does not exist in the
