This chapter is about the full list of Webtags. The names of the webtags are basically functional i.e. you can guess what the value says. The order of the tags in ''the local list'' is unknown, most likely it is a mix of time of origin, functionality and alphabetical ordering. Theorder of the tags in the full list is functional i.e. they are grouped by an arbitrary functional partition. Within such group no effort has been made to order according to another ordinal.
At the time  of this writing (25 september 2022) there are 870 distinct Webtags by name in the local list. The reader must be aware the full list may have flaws at any moment in time caused by the shear amount of tags and the speed of change in the software.

From version 3.12.0 the complete list of Webtags can be generated from your running CumulusMX instance.

Goto the interface. In the menu go to ''Program settings=>General options'', tick ''List web tags''. The next time that MX is restarted,  it will create a file called WebTags.txt in the same folder as where the executable is found. Unticking that parameter will have the inverse effect.

The ''WebTags.txt'' file will list all the tags your build of Cumulus can currently handle. This list only contains the bare tag_names. Parameters and modifiers will need to be looked up and added to make use of these. This list can be of use if you are using the tags to create your own program or website while interfacing with CumulusMX. It is useful to save it now and then with the CMX version nr in its name. This will make it possible to find the new tags easily through making a difference.
