consists of:
• Name of file being assembled
• Complete path and name of files processed (main assembly file and all
included files)

If a filename is dragged and dropped into the content area, the file is either
loaded as a configuration file or is assembled. It is loaded as a configuration file
if the file has a .ini extension. If not, the file is assembled with the current option
settings. (See
