Building the Project File

Once you create the topic files for your Viewer title, you can start building the project file. Every Viewer title has its own project file. The project file contains information that specifies exactly how a title is built.

You can use any ASCII text editor to create your project file. You should create the project file in the project directory. The project file contains multiple sections, with each section specifying a different part of the title. At a minimum, the project file must list the text files containing the title's topics.

Each project file should have a .MVP extension. The USA Tour sample calls the project file USA.MVP. Because the project directory for the sample is \VIEWER\USA, the USA.MVP file resides in that directory.
