| michael@1 | 34 | =head1 NAME |
| michael@1 | 35 | |
| michael@1 | 36 | B<as-events> - accounting system events document format |
| michael@1 | 37 | |
| michael@1 | 38 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
| michael@1 | 39 | |
| michael@1 | 40 | The B<as-gui> application takes input from the user and may store its data to |
| michael@1 | 41 | a file on the local filesystem. Among other functions, a user can enter time, |
| michael@1 | 42 | amounts, remarks, and other values. This data tuple is termed an I<event>, and |
| michael@1 | 43 | may either be transmitted to a B<AS> server or stored to a local file. Should |
| michael@1 | 44 | it be stored to a local file, the file name is arbitrary and is shown in the |
| michael@1 | 45 | title bar of B<as-gui>. Typically, the file is called F<events.as>. In most |
| michael@1 | 46 | cases the postfix B<.as> is appended to the file name, although this behaviour |
| michael@1 | 47 | can be turned on or off through the user preferences. |
| michael@1 | 48 | |
| michael@1 | 49 | =head1 FILE FORMAT |
| michael@1 | 50 | |
| michael@1 | 51 | The B<as-events> file contains ASCII text. The first line consists of an |
| michael@1 | 52 | identifier to associate the file type and version. Following text may contain |
| michael@1 | 53 | white space, comments, and data tuples. |
