New Templates

[RPMiller]

Dan,
Would it be possible to have you zip up the updated templates so that a single file could be downloaded instead of a whole bunch of individual ones?
It is fast enough to download each, but it would be even more so to do a single file.

BTW, I was supposed to download all the recently changed templates correct? I noticed the dates were all different so I did.

As always, thanks and keep up the great work!

I'll do that for the next update....since I need to make another template tweak. I just noticed that Growth and DI are not adding to Leaping.

Couple quick questions:
1) With all this updating, have you created any new tags, or has it been pretty much internal ith no need for them?
2) When you use the SEPERATE tag, will that automatically list items "horizontally"? ie as one line instead of seperate lines.

1. The main updating of late has been in the character templates (the main ones). The only new ability that I've put into them is the ability to specify the "ALIAS" in the template...basically, a default alias to use when constructing the ability (before, the DISPLAY was always used).

2. What "SEPARATE" tag? If you mean SEPARATOR, that's for something different...that's the separator to use on things like Compound Powers. Listing items horizontally is just a matter of formatting in the export template. If you include a line break between items, there will be one in the output, if you don't, there won't.

SEPARATOR... that's what I said ;)
Ok, so that specifies the character to be used between powers in a Compound Power. Ok, I'm trying to make my Character Brief Template a little less clunky and less dependent on a macro for formatting. In that template, everything should pretty much be listed together as a group and separated by semi-colons. So the technique that I'm already using seems to be the best one, unless you can provide me with a better idea?
