This template is used to display an information box containing details about an archive file format. See GRP Format for example use.
Valid parameters and examples are:
| Parameter/example | Purpose | Valid values |
|---|---|---|
| MaxFiles = 123 | Maximum number of files that can be stored in the archive | A number or Unlimited |
| FAT = Embedded | Where is the FAT? |
|
| Names = Yes, 8.3 chars | Does the format store a name for each file? | If yes specify maximum name length (not including any terminating NULL characters), otherwise use the special value N for no (this sets the categories appropriately) |
| Metadata = Title | Does the format have any metadata tags? | None or list of supported tags |
| Subdirectories = Y | Can files be put into subdirectories? (this is N for archives which simply store the path in the filename) | Y or N only (used for categories, do not use other values) |
| Compressed = Y | Can files be compressed inside the archive? | Y or N only (used for categories, do not use other values) |
| Encrypted = Y | Can files be encrypted inside the archive? | Y or N only (used for categories, do not use other values) |
| Hidden = Y | Can data be hidden between files without affecting them? (usually only possible with archives storing both file offsets and sizes) | Y or N only (used for categories, do not use other values) |
| Games = {{Game|GameName}} {{Game|GameName}} | Name of all games that use this format | Any wiki page name, as a parameter to the Game template |
Default values are shown if the parameter is omitted, so do not use any parameters unless the value is known (most of the defaults say "unknown")
