Converting Existing User-defined Applications

Previously, applications for each module were defined by an entry in the module\DFLTS\APPLICATIONS file. A separate main form for each application was built using the module\GEN\FSYSTEM file; application-specific gadgets and menus were added by calling the module\application\DBAR file from the FSYSTEM file.

In order that new applications can be added more easily and independently of each other, application definitions are now stored in the directory module\DFLTS\APPDEFNS. There is one file per application, which uses the same format as the old APPLICATIONS file with the extensions discussed previously.
