MASM32 PLUGINS

[Robert Collins]

In the \masm32\plugin directory I am reading 'TEMPLATE.TMP' it says:

To create your own set of templates, write a text file of your choice and
save it with a TMP extension. For example if you create a file called
"startup" you would save it as STARTUP.TMP.

Make a copy of TEMPLATE.DLL and save it as STARTUP.DLL so that you have 2
files with the same name but different extensions.

    STARTUP.TMP
    STARTUP.DLL
[/qoute]

OK, been there done that. Now it says:

Set up the file STARTUP.DLL with the settings editor for Quick Editor and
when you select the template you have created with the same name as the
DLL, it will be inserted directly into Quick Editor.

OK, I bring up QEditor and go into the editor settings. But I do not see anything there that allows me to do the above.

Try the next option down where you can set items on the menus in QE.

Ummmmmmm....it's a little bit more than I expected. I don't understand all the script stuff but I was able to link in my DLL but I dont see what's going on here other than my DLL was added to the Template's tool bar but other than that I don't know what it is supposed to do.

Robert,

The baswics of that plugin technique is to write the script you want , save it as the text file them set it up on the QE menu so that when you select the menu option, it will paste the data from your template into the editor. I tend to use the script engine these days as its more adjustable.
