External ReadMe - Creating
External ReadMe information is created using a special N record. Following this special N record, regular F Record - Full-Specification and more commonly F Record - Message are used to build the readme data.
The format for the special N record is:
Format:
NRMn
where:
n = 0 or 1. 1 means that the ReadMe information will be displayed immediately after the External File has been loaded. 0 means that will not (i.e. the user will have to click the External ReadMe - View/Hide Button in order to view the ReadMe info).
Example:
NRM0
The normal rules governing F records apply (e.g. up to 100; you can have Info Buttons; etc).
You should not use Relative or Trill Reference F records for building External ReadMe information. The External ReadMe F records are in fact stored in a position that is relative to the normal fingering records. An industrious person could determine how these ReadMe F records are stored relative to the regular records and actually use relative ReadMe F records to refer to these regular fingering F records. However, there is no guarantee that this relationship will always exist or stay the same, and such use is not supported. In other words, don't do it.
