What is FIL?
FIL (Factory Interface Language) is a macro language that dramatically extends the capabilities of the postprocessor and Option File Generator. No generalized postprocessor will ever have the ability to accommodate the many features available on today's controls, not to mention the new features being added to controls everyday! Through our customer's experience we have implemented new features in every semi-annual release of the G-POST since it was released many years ago. It is not possible to address the many special features available. This was the primary driving force in creation of FIL.
FIL allows the user to go beyond any postprocessor's capabilities through the ability to intercept records read by the postprocessor and manipulate them in ways limited only by the user's imagination. This FIL macro language allows users to:
Add, delete or modify CL file data
Alter postprocessor output
Add or modify APT vocabulary words
Read or write data into/from up to two files
Call other applications
In addition, the FIL macro language has many features for logic control:
Case statements
If/then/else logic
Do loops
Jumpto labels
There are many text string manipulation functions and many other tools available as well...
