This datatype allows you to view CEPT-3 format frames and carousels
(commonly known as videotex, teletext, viewdata or prestel frames)
It only supports full frames (960 byte file of 40x24 characters)
and carousels of full frames. You can create carousels by joining
single frames together with the JOIN command. Carousels MUST have
the extension ".car" to be detected by the datatype. Frames MUST
have the extension ".bin". As of v1.5, EP1 and EPX format files
are also supported. These are detected on the file header so can
have any extension. As of v1.6, Viewdata frames are properly
supported, can be any length but MUST have the extension ".cpt".
Carousels are split at the CS byte (0x0C).
It requires the MtA font (included). This is a modified version of
the MtA font from the PstView archive, where I have changed the
font to the UK character set. If you need the accented characters,
you might want to use the original instead.
Known bugs and limitations
Conceal, flash and steady are not supported. These codes will be
ignored (concealed text will be printed as if it had been revealed)
There are two descriptors as Datatypes picks some files up as binary
and others as ASCII, so you need a descriptor for each type.
Which is ASCII and which is binary is arbitrary and the author can't
remember five minutes after recreating them. The CPT and CPT-ASCII
types are separate for boring reasons, if you have a conflict with
another datatype which expects files to have the .cpt extension you
can remove them.
Most of the icons are by Ken "Ken's Icons" Lester.
