Temporary Files

Each time it is run, gbNewApp creates a new *.bas file, located in the "tempfiles" folder, which is a subfolder where the gbNewApp EXE is installed. gbNewApp creates the folder if the folder does not exist.

The new files are named "gbnewappsXX", where XX is a number generated by gbNewApp - incremented by 1 for each new file.

Template

The template is just a *.bas file, gbtinytemplate.bas, provided in the files subfolder. The file may be edited by the user.
