TemPluck - Template extraction utility

by Richard Amy


This program enables individual templates to be extracted from an existing template file and saved in a new template file. If this new template file uses anti-aliased text in any of its templates, then the font table details will also be copied.

Load the TemPluck application by double-clicking on its icon in a Filer window, or clicking on its icon in the RISC User Menu program. Then load the template file which contains the template(s) you wish to copy by dragging it to the TemPluck icon or window. You can copy templates from more than one file by simply dragging another template file to the TemPluck icon.

Use the TemPluck icon bar menu to select any templates you want to copy to the new file. This will add them to the list of templates in the TemPluck window. When you have selected all the templates that you wish to copy, you can save them as normal, using the Save option from the icon bar menu.

You should remember that you will need to copy any custom sprites from the source application to your own sprite file. This can be done simply by using Paint.

Be careful not to overwrite the original source template files by dragging your new template file to the directory containing the source template file.
