Heirarchical files
|
|
|
|
The actual MSE data is stored in heirarchical data files, these are usually files with no extension.
|
|
For example <tt>set</tt> or <tt>locale</tt>.
|
|
These are just ordinary text files, but they use an UTF-8 encoding, that means you need to use an editor that supports UTF-8.
|
|
Most modern editors support UTF-8, Notepad does on Windows XP.
|
|
|
|
--Syntax--
|
|
The files use a heirarchical structure and are made up of keys and values.
|
|
A value can be either a simple text string:
|
|
>game: magic
|
|
Or a block containing more keys and values:
|
|
>card:
|
|
> name: My Card
|
|
> type: Creature
|
|
|
|
Indentation is used to find out what belongs to what block. Indentation must be exactly one <tt>TAB</tt> per level, spaces are not allowed.
|
|
|
|
When the value is longer then a single line it can be written indented on the following lines:
|
|
>text:
|
|
> T: Draw a card
|
|
> WW: Gain 1 life
|
|
|
|
--Example--
|
|
For example, a [[type:set]] might look like this:
|
|
>game: magic
|
|
>style: new
|
|
>card:
|
|
> name: My Card
|
|
> type: Creature
|
|
>card:
|
|
> name: Another card
