Template:Dsdaftp

From DoomWiki.org

[1]


Instructions[edit]

This template is a shortcut for linking to files within the DSDA archive (usually containing one demo and one readme each), without having to look up the full URL each time.  It should always be used in place of the full URL, to guard against link rot.

Syntax:

{{dsdaftp|id/style/title.zip|explanatory text}}

id, style, and title all follow the DSDA naming conventions.  As of September 2007, the explanatory text usually just repeats the name of the zip file, as in tables like this.

For example, typing

{{dsdaftp|945/1/30cm7057.zip|30cm7057.zip}}

is the same as typing

[http://doomedsda.us/lmps/945/1/30cm7057.zip 30cm7057.zip]

and produces

30cm7057.zip

which when clicked would download Peroxyd and Xit Vono's UV max coop demo of Doom II.

The explanatory text argument can be omitted, in which case the link is simply auto-numbered along with other such links.
