Description

This is the program file object class. All executable files are of this class. From the Settings notebook pages for objects of this class, it is possible to set up associations to various data file types (files with .TYPE EAs or file extensions). It is also possible to set up a default working directory and specify parameters to the executable program to be used when it is opened from the shell. An instance of this class can be created as a Workplace object. Instances of this class are created initially by the system for each program file in the system. Each instance has a title corresponding to the file name of the program file it represents and resides in a folder corresponding to the physical directory in which the program file resides.
