Tree / Language file details

There are three formats that pasco reads langauge trees in.

  1. Mindnode - Markdown format. - ATX Style

Files look a little like this:

# Chat


## How are you?

- Ace!

- Whats that?

- 

## Whats happening?

- Yeah for sure

## I’m fed up


# I need something


## Its in my bag

## Its somewhere else

## Its upstairs

It's not the easiest to read - note that with markdown line breaks are key. It's easiest to generate this with something like MindNode - an iOS and Mac app to generate MindMaps. It really is a breeze

  1. Tab OR Space Indented text file

Here a file looks like this:

Chat
	How are you?
	Ace!
	Whats that?
	Whats happening?
		Yeah for sure
	I’m fed up

I need something
	Its in my bag
	Its somewhere else
	Its upstairs

It looks a little easier to read - but be warned - spaces and tabs at the beginning cannot be mixed. Don't put a space and then a tab. Its not the easiest.

  1. Open Board format

To export - select Export in the Configuration screen and select 'obz' format. You will need a way of sharing this file - either via email or your files app (and then dropbox etc) to make use of this outside of your iPad. Note it exports all your sound files too.

Pasco natively supports the . To use this simply upload your board(s) as a 'obz' file in the Configuration screen - and hopefully it should work! Note that we of course strip images - and right now there is no built in 'cue' for items. We use the label for this.
