Purpose
Opcode format | Opcode | Operand Format | Comments |
Extended ASCII | (DrawingInfo | <ws><TInfo>) | Container for a list of other Drawing Information opcodes. |
The Define Drawing Information Block opcode solves this problem by allowing all drawing information opcodes to be contained at the very beginning of the data. If, after reading the information block, the desired opcode is not found (the "drawing author" in this example), the WHIP! data reader can safely assume that no occurrences can be found anywhere else in the data.
