The line describing a course, with line breaks between text fields
added for clarity, is specified as follows:
"subject-abbr";
"level";
"colour-key[,]{3 (=rgb)}";
"number-of-lessons[,]{3 (= single, double, and triple periods)}";
"venue-type[,]{number of venue types required}"
The single tokens stand for the following entries:
- subject-abbr is the abbreviation for the subject of the course,
e. g. E for English.
- level is the level of instruction, e. g. 3 for 3rd year.
- colour-key stands for a number between 0 and 255.
The combination of the three numbers indicating the intensity of
red, green and blue components define the card colour for the
course.
- number-of-lessons is the number of single, double
or triple periods. A course taught as two single periods and one double
period per week would thus be described by the text field "2,1,0".
- venue-type specifies a venue type (possibly one of
several) required for the venue where this course is taught.
Please consult section 2.2.5
for a description of the effect of the various entries
on scheduling.
