I recall there was a way to create a data structure to make one files fields
to another using a data structure? I can't figure out how it's done.

Basically I have two files that have the same field, except a few are
different lengths. All signed/packed/character definitions match.

So we did this:

FFile1 uP E K DISK
f prefix(x_)
FFile2 if E K DISK

But then we have to eval each field to the other.

I remember that there is a way to setup a data structure so that all the
fields that are prefixed as X can automatically be put into the fields
without the prefix. Can someone show me how to do that? Thanks
