====== ParserMonster Constants ======
[[cleanup!]]
ParserMonster constants are names of several types of data:
  - Unchanging values, such as the current version
  - Special values that may change, such as the date
  - Flags that may be set to either true or false

ParserMonster detects constants within [[taskfiles|task files]] and [[constantfiles|constant files]]. 
You can add your own constants to the application. Create a text file and add the constants, one per line:

<code>
$MyFirstConstant=MyName@MyEmail.com
$ModifiedLongTime=
</code>

Save the file with any name you wish, as long as it begins with **cx-** and ends with the **.txt** extension. Make sure it is in the same folder as the application. [[devnote_datafolders]]

The next time you launch your application, the constants will be available.
