Example:

Would enable/disable GOD MODE when you press o in the game. The game will not give any indication that the code(s) are active, but they are. Add as many codes as you want to the end of the file. After saving the file, you must right-click on it, choose properties and then mark the file as READ ONLY. Otherwise the game will overwrite the file when started.
Note: You must start a new level or the cheats may not work. Use the MISSION SELECT option from the menu or start a new game.
