Mine Note Auto Left/Right

Mine Note Auto Left/Right is a simple routine for entering offsets. The routine only requires a starting and ending point, and then simply distance up, distance left, and distance right over and over until the end of that entry. Corner points may be specified for left or right offsets by preceding the number with a C or *. Corner points identify a corner of a pillar across a cross cut. Corner points are drawn as green dots, while other points are red circles. This distinction is made to assist in pillar connections and is important for AutoMine Connections.

If the ASCII File From Notes option is on, this routine also produces a .DAT file in the data directory which contains a record of the entries. This file is necessary for AutoMine Connections.
