Help System (web edition)

LIST in Survo is a sequence of text chapters located in different
edit fields. Each chapter must be defined by a DEF definition in
its own edit field (see DEF?). The list itself is defined by
a text file with the following minimal structure:

<chapter_1>,<edit_field_1> 
<chapter_2>,<edit_field_2> 
...
END

Abbreviations like A,XYZ1-3  (meaning A,XYZ1 A,XYZ2 A,XYZ3) are also
accepted.
The list thus defined is referred to by its file name with .LST as the
default extension.

To process a list in a structured form, the LST file must contain some
additional information.

In LIST SHOW and LIST REPLACE operations the list can also be defined
locally in the current edit field in the following way:
LIST <name_of_the_list>: <chapter_1>,<edit_field_1> <chapter_2>,<edit_field2>,
                          ...  END
The chapters belonging to the list have to be given by DEF definitions
in their edit files (See DEF?).

Example:
LIST REPORT1: A,INTRO1 A,INTRO2 A,INTRO3
              A,CH1 A,CH2 A,CH3 A,CH4 A,CH5 *,REF END
                                           (* = entire edit file)
The list above can also be given in an abbreviated form
LIST REPORT1: A,INTRO1-3 A,CH1-5 *,REF END

Edit files can given with complete pathnames. A common path for all
fields is given by PATH=<path>. For example: PATH=D:\REPORT\
