Submitting files
    Related Syntax  

submit actions are often used to apply find rules to the contents of files determined by the program.

When invoked on a file, a submit action causes the following chain of events:

  1. OmniMark suspends processing of the current input or output.
  2. The named file is opened and read.
  3. Any find rules are immediately applied to the content of the named file.
  4. When the entire input or output has been processed, OmniMark resumes processing of the suspended input or output.

Using a submit action allows very large files to be processed because, when a submit action is processing only a file, it does not need to read the whole file at once. It provides input to find rules as required.
