Default Attributes
Attributes may be defined as they are needed, or they may be selected from a default set of attributes defined in a file named MAPPLOT.AAT. (the INIT command can be used to select a different default attribute table). When MAPPLOT starts up, the system path is searched for the default AAT file. If this is found, then the attributes it contains are defined for use in the control file being processed. These attributes may be re-defined or overridden by attribute definitions in the control file. The output attribute file will contain all the default attributes from MAPPLOT.AAT, plus any new attributes defined in the control file.
The MAPPLOT.AAT is an ASCII file with the same format as produced by the PLATT program. It may be modified using a text file editor. The following are the default attributes supplied with MAPPLOT.
