Re: Ancient documentation - DRET
If it's VSE, you need to post on the VSE list. (I am on the VSE list and don't remember seeing you asking there.) Tony Thigpen -Original Message - From: Shimon Lebowitz Sent: 07/14/2011 10:14 AM Thank you for trying... DRET (or maybe D.R.E.T.) is some ancient VSE program product (or maybe one of those PRPQ or whatever thingys). It sort of reminds me of linux 'dd' - take any input, move it to any output, with any of a gazillion assorted manipulations/mangles along the way. Without a manual, there is very little chance of getting correct syntax. Thanks!
