+# $EPIC: loadformats.txt,v 1.2 2007/03/01 03:26:44 jnelson Exp $
+======Synopsis:======
+[[load]] loadformats \\
+/addformat //type// [//value//] \\
+/delformat //type// \\
+/dumpformats \\
+/loadformats //filename// \\
+/saveformats //filename//
+======Description:======
+This script is the user-friendly front end to the implied [[on]] hook
+facility.  This script allows you to create /SET FORMAT_* variables which
+behave similarly to other client's /FSET facilities.
+The implied [[on]] hook facility allows you to control how the events are
+displayed to your window, without having to create explicit [[on]] hooks.
+This script lets you load, change, and set these implied on hooks, and
+control the values through dynamically created [[set]]s.
+======Arguments:======
+The //type// argument is the name of an [[on]] type, such as MSG, PUBLIC,
+or NOTIFY_SIGNON, etc.
+The //value// argument is the default initial value for the new [[set]].
+The //filename// is a the name of a file that contains format definitions
+that look like
+       //TYPE// //VALUE//
+for example,
+	PUBLIC %K<%n$0%K>%n $2-
+	MSG %K[%C$0%K\(%c$userhost($0)%K\)] $1-
+======Commands:======
+The /ADDFORMAT command creates a /SET FORMAT_//type// variable that controls
+the implied on hook for the on //type//.  The initial value of the format
+and the implied on hook is the optional //value//.
+The /DELFORMAT command removes the /SET FORMAT_//type// variable that
+controls the implied on hook for the on //type//.  The implied on hook is
+also destroyed.
+The /DUMPFORMAT command removes all of the /SET FORMAT_//type// variables
+and all of your implied on hooks.
+The /LOADFORMATS command loads a file that contains lines that contain a
+//type// and a //value//, and runs /ADDFORMAT on each.
+The /SAVEFORMATS command saves all of your implied hooks into a file that
+can be later loaded with /LOADFORMATS.
