Choose SaveAs from the File menu to dump the whole of the scrollable contents of
the main window to a text file. There are eight possible modes of operation,
controlled by the filename used to receive the output, and the country filter.
9.2.10.1 If the letters ’bat’ immediately preceded the dot (filename matches
’*bat.*’), the ouput will be in batch format, otherwise normal text format.
9.2.10.2 If the extension is ’all’ (filename matches ’*.all’), and one of the four main
waypoint types is being listed, all four waypoint types will be dumped,
otherwise only the selected type is output. (This mode is not limited to
2000 lines like the others). If the current listing is SUAs, and file type
*sua.all is selected, the whole of the SUA section is output in a form
suitable for re-compilation. For FSS or TCC the filename should match
*tcc.all, and for approaches it should match *apr.all.
9.2.10.3 A country filter may be applied to any output, except where it would be
meaningless. Note that only APT, INT, NDB, and VOR records carry a
country identifier.
9.2.11 Compile SUA
This facility is described in the separate SUA Editor’s Manual. A Compile filters
dialog box is presented to allow the SUAs to be filtered by applying a maximum
base altitude (which must be a multiple of 100 feet), and by specifying the South
West and North East limits of the area required. These co-ordinates must be given
in degrees, minutes and seconds, Nddmmss for North (or S for South), and
Edddmmss for East (W for West).
9.2.12 Compile FSS/TCC
The principal reason for the inclusion of FSS/TCC re-compilation is to enable the
creation of images using the specified-area method. In particular, the co-ordinate
sections of the TCC data are not expanded, so modification by hand is not possible.
9.2.13 Compile APR
This function will read and interpret a text file created in *apr.all format. Unlike the
other two compile functions, CompileAPR updates the section of the ISAM
database holding approach data, and remains the only way of making changes to
this section.
