Tag Identifiers
These three-digit numbers are used to identify fields. The three-
digit number is used instead of a name to minimize use of disk
space. The Dictionary file (ACC.DIC) provides the field names
associated with each tag identifier.

String Information
String information for record field values is stored inside braces
(for example, {this is a string}). This allows spaces within strings
and stores only the necessary characters of a string value. String
fields for which no value is specified are stored as {}, instead of
using blanks or the maximum field size.

Separators
A typical record in any of the accounting files is a sequence of
pairs of tag identifiers and field values separated by commas. The
tag identifier and field value are separated by a colon.
pairs of tag identifiers and field values separated by commas. The

Example
The following is an example of the format of an accounting file record:
1: 3, 2:{this is a string}, <CR>
In this example, the record has fields identified by tags 1 and 2. Since
these values don't use 3 digits for the tag identifier, spaces are stored
instead, to provide consistency and simplicity while using only a small
amount of extra space. In this example, the value for the field tagged
1 is the integer 3 and the value for the field tagged 2 is a string. The
<CR> represents the carriage return character.
