GROT Rotation file format: Proposal for version 2
Attribute markup
Wrapping an attribute value in double quotes is awkward in a file syntax which doesn't otherwise require this.
Old style @ATTRIBUTE“value”
Example: @AU“Foo Bar” @AU“Baz” @REF“Foo.EPSL.2020” @REF“Bar.JGR.2020” @C“Some foo bar comment”
Proposed new style: @ATTRIBUTE value
Example: @AU Foo Bar,Baz @REF Foo.EPSL.2020, Bar.JGR.2020 @C Some foo bar comment
This means that an attribute is either delimited by a following attribute, prefixed by an @
sign or a newline character. Attribute value lists (e.g. @AU FOO, BAR, BAZ
) are allowed but individual values are required to be separated by commas.
Compound attributes
In some cases, workers want to use compound attributes such as:
'@C rotation params changed by @AU BAZ,FOOB based on @REF Bar.2019,Baz.2020 for @CHRONID M1r'
