*************************************************************************

This documents the variable numbers used by the Zap_ReadVar and Zap_WriteVar
calls. Please note that the variables with names beginning 'opt_' are stored
in the !Config file and thus saved when the user clicks 'Options.Save'.

The options for a given mode are also stored in the !Config file. See below.

Setting & Reading default mode options
--------------------------------------

Each mode has a word of workspace in a window block called w_moden (see
E-Windows). When a window is created, the default settings (stored in the
!Config file) for that mode is used. These default settings are stored in
memory, and saved when the user clicks on the 'save options' menu entry.
The variable number &100+n accesses the default mode word for mode numbered
n. Ie,

&100	opt_mode0	Text mode word
&101	opt_mode1	Byte mode word
&102	opt_mode2	Word mode word
... etc ...

If there was no information about the mode in the !Config file then the mode
word is set to 0. In this case, the mode should note this on startup (see
e_init with R1=2) and write some sensible default values to it. If the mode
has b10 set in it's e_mode word, then the mode word points to a block of
data, the first word in the block giving the total length of the block. The
mode can resize this block at any time using the standard heap calls. If the
mode word was 0 then the mode should claim a block at startup and set it up
with default values (and save the address of it's block in the mode word via
Zap_WriteVar).

If your mode word is zero when you start up then you should also define
sensible colours for your mode using Zap_ModeColours and a sensible width etc
using Zap_ModeData.

!Config file format
-------------------

The first word must be the bytes for the letters "Conf". Then the !Config
file consists of a list of blocks, terminated by a zero word. Each block has
the following format:

 #0	Block type:	0	End of list.
 			1	Zap global options storage block.
 			2	Mode dependant storage block.
 			3+	Undefined.
 #4	Total block length (offset from start of block to next block).
 #8 ...	Block data
 
Block type 1 is version dependent (see below).

If the block type is 2 then the block data has the following format

	#0	Mode name, zero terminated then align to next word.
		Length of Zap handled data for this mode (see below)
		Zap handled data for this mode (version dependant)
		Length of Mode handled data for this mode (0 if none).
		Mode handled data for the mode (mode dependant).

(NB If b10 of e_mode is set then the last two entries are written into a heap
block whose address is stored in opt_moden where n is the mode number which
is assigned to the mode. If not, the the first word of the data is put
in opt_moden)

Version 1.10
------------

The format of the Zap handled bits for version 1.1 is:

Block type 1 data: (total block length 8+&54=&5C)

		#&00	Reserved (set to 0)
                #&04	Reserved
                #&08	Reserved
                #&0C	Reserved
                #&10	Reserved
                #&14	character set to use for control characters (0-3)
		#&18	column tab width
		#&1C	opt_flags value (see E-Flags)
		#&20	opt_format value (see E-Flags)
		#&24	address of first byte of file (for line numbers)
		#&28	line number of first line of file
		#&2C	line spaceing
		#&30	margin width
		#&34	cursor types byte0=normal cursor byte1=split1 cursor
			byte2=split2 cursor byte3=mark position cursor.
			0=block 1=square 2=underscore 3=bar 4=none 5+=undefined
		#&38	Code of end of line x4 (eg &0a0a0a0a)
		#&3C	Code of tab character x4 (eg &09090909)
		#&40	Wordwrap width
		#&44	Minibuffer colours byte0=background wimp col
			byte1=foreground wimp colour
		#&48	Switches flags word:
			b0 set for flashing cursor
			b1 must be 0
			b2 set for date checking on file saving
			b3 set for clear search window automatically
			b4 must be 0
			b5 must be 0
			b6 set for confine cursor to window
			b7 must be 0
			b8-b31 reserved - must be 0
		#&4C	Reserved
		#&50	Reserved
		
Block type 2 data:

The Zap handled bit of it is 12 bytes long and documented below. The format
may change with future versions and should be read via Zap calls
Zap_ModeColour and Zap_ModeData if you are a Zap extension mode.

	#0	Mode data variable 0 - see Zap_ModeData call.
	#4 &#8	The current palette for this mode. The 16 nibbles give
		the wimp colours of the 16 colours with nibble0=background
		colour 1, nibble1=background colour 2 etc.
		See Zap_ModeColour.
