Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Project Status File (<project>.STS)
 
     The project status file contains the following information for each
     PWB project. Most of these settings are also saved for non-PWB
     projects.
     See: ◄Using Non-PWB Makefiles►
 
     Project State
 
       ■  Build directory and debug/release state
 
          Set by the Build Options command on the Options menu.
 
       ■  Project template and template customizations (contains
          compiler and utility options)
 
          The template was originally set when you created the project.
          The template can be reset or modified using the commands on
          the Options menu.
 
       ■  Environment variables (when Envprojsave:yes)
 
          Set by the Environment Variables command from the Options menu
          or the Environment function («environment»).
 
     PWB maintains only the environment variables for non-PWB projects.
     Templates and build options do not apply to non-PWB projects.
 
     Editor State
 
       ■  Screen size
 
          Set as the current screen mode when you first start PWB, or
          when you change the Height switch.
 
       ■  Window style, maximized/minimized state, and arrangement
 
          Set when you use Window menu commands, the Editor Settings
          command from the Options menu, and various window functions.
 
       ■  List of open files
 
          Set when you use the File menu and the Newfile, Openfile, and
          Setfile functions.
 
       ■  Find/Replace strings and options
 
          Set when you use the Search menu and search functions.
 
       ■  Mark file
 
          Set by using the Set Mark File command on the Search menu or
          the Mark function.
 
     Debugger State
 
       ■  Window arrangement
 
          Set when you use the CodeView Window menu.
 
       ■  Breakpoints
 
          Set when you use the CodeView Data menu and the Command window
          breakpoint commands.
 
       ■  Location in source file on exit
 
          This location is passed back to PWB and is not used by
          CodeView.
