FreeFlow Variable Information Suite 5.0 (7/2006) VIPO-25
The bookmark field (the eighth field) can be replaced with as many field names as
needed, each separated by the defined field separator. For more information, see
“Bookmark field.”
Field separator
A field separator is a single character that separates the index file fields and bookmark
fields. The separator is used to generate the field separators in the index file header and
in each index file record. You can change the field separator used in the template. The
syntax for the field separator is:
<FS=‘char’>
where char is any printable ASCII character except: [ ] < >. The field separator in the
default template is a comma (,).
Bookmark field
You can replace the bookmark field with an unlimited number of field names. Each
bookmark field name appears in the index file header.
Use the following syntax with any bookmark field name in the template to control which
portions of the bookmark are extracted and placed into the corresponding fields in each
index file entry generated by VIPO.
[x..y]
Uses a substring of Bookmark from zero-based indices x to y. This is an optional range
modifier that can appear in any order or number after the fixed fields in the template. Valid
values for x and y are 0 through 99.
[Fn]
Uses field number n of the bookmark according to BFS. This is an optional field number
that can appear in any order or number after the fixed fields in the template. Valid values
for n are 0 through 99.
NOTE
All fields in the index file header and index file record are enclosed in
double quotes. This feature cannot be turned off.
NOTE
The default template places the entire bookmark into the last field of each
index file.
