4 # This file allows full customization of the user interface.
6 # The standard client looks for this file in:
8 # 2. <compiled BBSDIR>/citadel.rc
10 # 4. <current directory>/citadel.rc
12 # Set ENCRYPT to yes to force SSL/TLS encryption when connecting to a
13 # Citadel/UX server, even if the server is on the same machine as the
14 # client. Set it to no to disable SSL/TLS encryption. The default is to
15 # enable encryption for remote systems and to disable encryption for
16 # systems on the same machine as the client.
19 # Set FULLSCREEN to yes to (attempt to) use full-screen curses mode.
20 # This mode presents a status line and a few other niceties. Some
21 # people might not like this, so you can turn it off here or with the
22 # -s command line option. The default is to use full screen if the
23 # terminal supports it.
26 # Set EDITOR to the name of an external editor to be used for entering
27 # messages. If you want the external editor to be used by default, be sure
28 # to reflect this in the command set below.
32 # Or, you could have multiple editors available, like this:
33 # ("editor" and "editor0" are the same internally)
34 # You can go up to MAX_EDITORS number of editors (5 by default)
39 # If you define PRINTCMD, it will be a pipe through which messages are
40 # printed when the user hits the <P>rint key after a message.
44 # If you define EXPCMD, it will be a pipe through which any incoming
45 # express messages will be printed.
46 #expcmd=xmessage -title "Express Message" -center -buttons OK -file -
48 # If LOCAL_SCREEN_DIMENSIONS is set to 1, then the screen dimensions will
49 # be requested from the underlying operating system instead of asking the
50 # user. This works when the user has his/her own copy of the client, it
51 # works for xterms, it sometimes works for telnet sessions, but it doesn't
52 # work for dialup connections. Generally you should set this to 1 for a
53 # private copy of the client or 0 for a shared copy of the client.
55 local_screen_dimensions=1
57 # ANSI_COLOR should be set to on/off/auto/user to control the use of
58 # color on the screen. If it is set to "auto" then an autodetect will be
59 # attempted. If it is set to "user" then it's a user-configurable option.
63 # USE_BACKGROUND controls Citadel's use of the background. If it is turned
64 # off, then Citadel will set the background to black. When it is turned on,
65 # the background will be unchanged. This is most useful with "transparent"
66 # terminals. Color must be on (see above) or this option has no effect.
70 # PROMPT_CONTROL should be set to on/off/user to control whether the <N>ext
71 # and <S>top keys are active when displaying the paginator prompt. If it
72 # is set to "user" then it's a user-configurable option.
76 # If DISPLAY_MESSAGE_NUMBERS is set to 1, then messages will be displayed
77 # with their message numbers in the header. This is ugly but some
78 # people seem to like it anyway...
80 display_message_numbers=0
82 # The FORCE_MAIL_PROMPTS directive causes mail rooms to always display a
83 # prompt after each message, even if the user has prompts turned off.
87 # USE_FLOORS determines whether the user sees floors, or a flat room space.
88 # Set it to YES to always use floors, NO to never use floors, or DEFAULT
89 # to use the setting in the user's configuration (which is normally the case).
93 # BEEP should be set to 1 if you wish the terminal to beep when an express
94 # message (page) comes in, otherwise set it to 0.
98 # ALLOW_ATTACHMENTS should be set to 1 if you wish the user to be able to
99 # attach files to messages and/or save attachments to disk while reading
100 # messages. (DANGER: do NOT enable this for "safe" public clients!)
104 # IDLE_THRESHOLD is the amount of time a user does nothing before being
105 # listed as "idle" on the who list. The default is 900 seconds (15 minutes).
109 # If you set REMEMBER_PASSWORDS to 1, the Citadel client will offer to
110 # remember your user name and password for every Citadel server you access,
111 # automatically logging in with them on subsequent visits.
112 # (DANGER: do NOT enable this for "safe" public clients!)
116 # Optionally, you can force the same username and password everywhere. This
117 # obviously isn't as robust as the password manager.
119 #username=My User Name
122 # If URLCMD is defined, users can hit 'U' after reading a message which
123 # contains embedded URL's, and the command will be executed. Usually this
124 # will be used to remote-control a web browser. (Do not enable this command
125 # for 'safe' public clients.)
127 # This one works on Linux and most other X11-based Unices. Specify the full
128 # path to Mozilla (or a Mozilla derivative like Netscape) if necessary.
129 #urlcmd=mozilla -remote "openURL(%s)"
131 # This one works really well on a Macintosh -- it opens URL's in whatever
132 # browser you have configured as the system default.
135 # If GOTMAILCMD is defined, the specified command will be executed. This
136 # might be nice for playing sounds or providing any other type of notification.
138 #gotmailcmd=play gotmail.wav
140 # If IMAGECMD is defined, users can hit 'I' to view images attached to a
141 # message. (Do not enable this command for public clients.)
145 # MESSAGE READING SEMANTICS (experimental)
147 # A new set of message reading semantics is now available. If you set
148 # alternate_semantics, the following changes are made:
150 # * Messages are marked as read when you read them, rather than when you
151 # leave the room. This means read <N>ew will display a new message
152 # at most once, unless last old on new is turned on.
153 # * Reading <F>orward or <R>everse does not mark messages as read.
154 # * When you leave a room with <G>oto, <J>ump, etc., only messages that
155 # were in the room when you arrived are marked as read. The original
156 # semantics mark all messages read that were in the room at the time
157 # you leave the room. This occasionally causes messages to be "lost."
158 # * When you leave with <T>erminate, no additional messages are marked
160 # * The <S>kip and <A>bandon commands are reversed.
162 # This set of semantics should make Citadel easier to use on very busy
163 # systems, where many messages may be posted while reading. Users
164 # accustomed to D.O.C. or its variants will want to set this option.
166 alternate_semantics=no
169 # When the user hits the <R>eply key after reading a message, reply_with_editor
170 # selects whether it uses the built-in editor (select 'no') or an external
171 # editor (select 'yes').
173 reply_with_external_editor=no
176 # COMMAND SET CONFIGURATION
178 # All lines starting with "cmd=" are considered to be commands. This allows
179 # mapping of keytstrokes to various functions of the client.
181 # Format of each line:
182 # cmd_num,access,keystrokes
184 # Keep a copy of the original version of this file around as a reference
185 # for the command numbers. They are not documented anywhere else.
187 # Access is: 0 (all users), 1 (aides or room aides), 2 (aides only).
188 # Please be aware that it is futile to attempt to gain unauthorized access to
189 # the administrative functions of the system by changing all the access levels
190 # to 0. If you do this, you'll simply be able to enter a lot of commands that
191 # will fail at the server ... so don't bother trying. :-)
193 # The actual key to be pressed should be prefaced with an & (ampersand)
194 # character. Ampersands are interesting and useful characters and you should
195 # use them as much as possible. Commands requiring more than one keystroke
196 # should be entered as multiple fields.
198 # If the last keystroke string ends with a : (colon), then the command
199 # will finish by allowing the user to enter a string.
201 # In keystroke names, the string ^r will be replaced by the name of the
202 # current room. The string ^c will be replaced by a comma.
204 # Commands may contain no more than five keystrokes.
206 # Note that the following characters are illegal in commands:
207 # , (comma) : (colon) ^ (caret) & (ampersand)
215 # If you want to use an external editor by default, set <E>nter message
216 # to command #46 (external editor) instead of #4 (built-in editor).
