Introduction
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ is a successor of the wellknown <name/GoldED/ mail editor
|
|
originally written by <name/Odinn Sorensen/.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ is run under <name/DOS/ with 32-bit <abbr/DPMI/ driver,
|
|
<name/Microsoft Windows/, <name>IBM OS/2</name>, <name/Linux/, and
|
|
<name/FreeBSD/. There's should be no serious problem to compile it
|
|
on other <name/UNIX/-like systems running on <name/Intel/ <name/80x86/
|
|
architecture. Unlike the original version of <name/GoldED/,
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ is not supported on CPUs lower than <name/80386/.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ takes his history from the patch collection made by
|
|
<name>Alexander S. Aganichev</name>. A lot of code was contributed to
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ by different people around the world. At least,
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ contains portions of code written by the core team of
|
|
<name/GoldED/ (<name/Odinn Sorensen/, <name>Dirk A. Mueller</name>, and
|
|
<name/Leonid Lisovsky/), <name/Mike Smedley/, <name/Pavel Gulchouck/,
|
|
<name/Denis Zavorotny/, <name/Alexander Batalov/, <name/Eugene Roshal/,

<name/Igor Vanin/, <name/Alexey Froloff/, <name/Andrew Shakhmatov/,
|
|
<name/Roman Trunov/, <name/Alex Druinsky/, <name>Alexander
|
|
Tsvyashchenko</name>, <name/Pavel Tsekov/ and of course by the
|
|
maintainers of <name/GoldED+/ (<name/Alexander Aganichev/ and
|
|
<name/Jacobo Tarrio/). Some portions of code was taken from C/C++
|
|
snippets collected by <name/Bob Stouts/ (personal thanks goes to
|
|
<name/Thad Smith/, <name/Raymond Gardner/, <name/Jeff Dunlop/,
|
|
<name/Mark G. Mendel/, <name/Gary S. Brown/, <name/John Rex/, and
|

|
|

The additional permission to link with <name>non-GPL/LGPL</name> software
|
|
may be slightly controversial. The intent is to allow developers a
|
|
greater freedom to create specialized versions of GoldED. Examples could
|
|
be a <abbr/GUI/ <name/KGoldED/ linked with <name/QT/, a <name/MozGoldED/
|
|
mail/news component for <name/Mozilla/ using <name/NGLayout/ for
|
|
displaying <abbr/HTML/, a <name/GoldED+/ with an embedded <name/Perl/
|
|
scripting engine or whatever. However, we cannot allow the core
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ or <name/Goldware Library/ to be dependent on these
|
|
specialized versions, so developers should take care to make their
|
|
specialized modifications modular and <q/stubifiable/ if necessary.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Parts of the <name/Goldware Library/ is derived from the source of the
|
|
old shareware <name/CXL/ 5.2 library by <name/Mike Smedley/, from which
|
|
<name/Odinn Sorensen/ bought a source license many years ago.
|
|
<name/Odinn/ has made very extensive modifications (for example, the
|
|
original was <name/DOS/ only), but much code is essentially unchanged
|
|
(<code/gwin*.cpp/). <name/CXL/ was taken over from <name/Mike Smedley/
|
|
by <name/Innovative Data Concepts/ (<name/IDC/), which renamed it
|
|
<name/TCXL/ and continued development along somewhat different lines,
|
|
which <name/Odinn/ did not agree with (or at least not easily port
|
|
<name/GoldED/ to). However, it seems that <name/TCXL/ never really became
|
|
successful. At least <name/Odinn/ could not find anything new about
|
|
<name/TCXL/ and <name/Innovative Data Concepts/ on the <name/Internet/
|
|
(as of november 15, 1998). <name/Odinn/ could not even find
|
|
<name/IDC/'s website, so in this day and age where any succesful business
|
|
has a website, <name/Odinn/ suspects that they no longer exist.
|
|
<name/Odinn/ even tried to find <name/Mike Smedley/, but apparently he
|
|
has vanished off the face of the earth, or has lost interest in
|
|
programming entirely. <name/Odinn/ found some postings (on
|
|
<name/DejaNews/) on a sports newsgroup by a <name/Mike Smedley/, but
|
|
he doubts that it's the same guy.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
So, even though parts of the <name/Goldware Library/ technically are
|
|
still copyrighted by <name/Mike Smedley/, <name/Odinn/ see so serious
|
|
problems in using them. If anyone should happen to know <name>Mike
|
|
Smedley</name> and how to contact him, <name/Odinn Sorensen/ would very
|
|
much appreciate to get the information, so we can clear up this issue.

The Message Database Formats
|
|
</head>
|
|
<div2>
|
|
<head>
|
|
Opus, FTS-0001
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
These are two variants of the same type of msgbase. It works by using
|
|
one physical file per message (<code/1.msg/, <code/2.msg/ etc.),
|
|
collecting them in a directory for each area. Depending on the
|
|
clustersize on the harddisk, this can be a very wasteful and slow
|
|
way to store messages. With a clustersize of about 512 bytes, the
|
|
waste may be acceptable, but the access speed can be dramatically
|
|
slow if there are many <code/*.msg/ files, due to the file system.
|
|
Cache adjustments can improve it, but there are limits.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In echomail areas, this format has a special quirk: The first message
|
|
(<code/1.msg/) is normally used to store the so-called
|
|
<q/highwatermark/. The highwatermark tells the echomail processor
|
|
where it should start scanning for new messages entered by users.
|
|
By deleting (zapping) the highwatermark, you can make the echomail
|
|
processor re-scan the whole area again. This may cause messages to
|
|
be sent out as <q/dupes/, so this should be used sparingly and
|
|
carefully, if at all! The highwatermark can also be <q/heated/ -
|
|
which means that it is set to the last msg in the area. This
|
|
prevents the echomail processor from finding newly entered
|
|
unscanned msgs. Use with care.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The variants: The <name/Opus/ format originated in the <name/Opus/
|
|
<abbr/BBS/ system. It put some <name/Fido/ undocumented (?) fields to
|
|
use as date/time stamps. The <name/FTS-0001/ (defined in FTS-0001,
|
|
revision 12 and later) format uses the undocumented fields to set the
|
|
zone/point information for the message. To the authors knowledge, the
|
|
<name/Opus/ variant is the dominant, and the <name/FTS-0001/ variant
|
|
is doomed to oblivion. If in doubt, use the <name/Opus/ format.

QuickBBS, RemoteAccess, and Hudson
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This msgbase format was invented by <name/Adam Hudson/, and was first
|
|
used in his <name/QuickBBS/ package. Later several other
|
|
<abbr/BBS/'es were cloned from <name/QuickBBS/ (like
|
|
<name/RemoteAccess/ and <name/SuperBBS/).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The format limits the total size of <code/msgtxt.bbs/ to a maximum of
|
|
16MB, which translates to about 16000 msgs of <q/average/ length.
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ automatically warns you if the limit is close to being
|
|
reached, and advises you to pack the messagebase.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The first incarnations of <name/QuickBBS/ did not support <q/sharing/
|
|
of the msgbase. This became more and more important in later years as
|
|
multitaskers and networks got cheaper. <name/RemoteAccess/ <abbr/BBS/
|
|
was the first to implement a useful method, and later a better method
|
|
was evolved (known as <name/RA/ 1.01 or <name/RA/ 1.1x), which is now
|
|
the standard for all modern software that supports msgbase sharing.
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ fully supports the new standard of course.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The main virtue of this format is that it is very fast to access the
|
|
msgbase.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The main disadvantage is that it can be very sensitive to disk
|
|
problems, and it is a common horror story that people loose their
|
|
entire msgbase because the disk developed bad clusters or some
|
|
program went berserk and messed up the msgbase files.

Goldbase
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This is an enhanced version of the <name/Hudson/ format, introduced
|
|
in <name/QuickBBS/ 2.80 by the <name/QuickBBS/ group.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <name/Goldbase/ format removes the 16MB size limit and allows up
|
|
to 500 message areas instead of the 200 in <name/Hudson/.
|
|
</p>
|
|

|
Squish
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <name/Squish/ format was invented by <name/Maximus/ <abbr/BBS/
|
|
author <name/Scott Dudley/ in 1991, and was first used in
|
|
<name/Maximus CBCS/ v2.00.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The use of a database for each area - instead of one file per msg,
|
|
or all msgs in one big database - makes this format fast, very
|
|
safe and resistant to disk problems. Even if something messed up a
|
|
<name/Squish/ area, it can almost always be fixed and recovered,
|
|
using the <name/SQFIX/ or <name/SQREIDX/ utilities that come with the
|
|
<name/Squish/ echomail processor.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A special feature of <name/Squish/ areas is that they can be
|
|
self-maintaining. You can setup a <name/Squish/ area so that it may
|
|
only contain a maximum of so-and-so many msgs, and then it will
|
|
automatically re-use the space used by old msgs when the limit is
|
|
reached, and so it will practically stop growing. It will still need
|
|
packing, but not nearly as often as a <name/Hudson/ msgbase has to.

JAM
|

</head>
|

<p>
|
|
<name/JAM/ format as defined in the <name/JAM(mbp)/ revision 001.
|
|
Also <name/CrashMail/, <name/CrashEcho/, and <name/HPT/ highwater
|
|
marks are supported.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ currently ignores revision number of header structure
|
|
and assumes that future revisions will remain backward compatible.
|
|
When creating new msgs, <name/GoldED+/ uses the revision 1 header
|
|
structure.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ currently doesn't support passwords to access the
|
|
message base and/or indiviual messages. When creating a new
|
|
<name/JAM/ msgbase and/or new <name/JAM/ msgs, <name/GoldED+/ sets
|
|
the password to FFFFFFFFh. If you change an existing message which
|
|
has a password, the password is <hi/NOT/ preserved, but reset to
|
|
FFFFFFFFh.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <name/JAM/ lastread file is designed such that is has to be
|
|
searched for a userid/usercrc, because one cannot assume that the
|
|
records are in a specific order. The <name/JAM/ <abbr/API/ searches
|
|
the userid field. However <name/GoldED+/ searches for the usercrc,
|
|
not the userid. In any case, it seems that <name/RemoteAccess/ 2.x
|
|
sets both the userid and usercrc to the same value.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ currently doesn't support the escaping described in
|
|
the <name/JAM/ specs. The specs state that the current revision of
|
|
<name/JAM/ does not support it either, so it seems to be not great
|
|
loss.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ does not supports the following <name/JAM/ subfields:
|
|
<q/Force pickup/, and <q>Msg may not be displayed to user</q> (always
|
|
displayed).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ optionally may use tricky method invented by
|
|
<name/Odinn/ and aprooved by the <name/JAM/ developers when deleting
|
|
messages. The configuration keyword
|
|
<ref target=JAMHARDDELETE><kw/JAMHARDDELETE/</ref> specifies which
|
|
method to use.

PCBoard
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The supported <name/PCBoard/ messagebase corresponds to the v15.x of
|
|
<name/PCBoard/ <abbr/BBS/.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ is aware of <name/PCBoard/ v15.x extended headers in
|
|
the message text. The <gi/TO/, <gi/TO2/, <gi/FROM/, <gi/FROM2/ and
|
|
<gi/SUBJECT/ extended headers are directly supported and
|
|
<q/swallowed/ when reading a message. Other extended headers are
|
|
currently treated like normal message text and is therefore not
|
|
hidden to the reader.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Passwords are not supported.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <gi/Private/, <gi/Received/, <gi/Crash/, and <gi/Direct/ attributes
|
|
are supported.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ reads the <code/pcboard.dat/ file to determine whether
|
|
to use E3h or 0Dh (<gi/CR/) as the line/paragraph termination
|
|
character when reading and writing message text.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The mail waiting flags are updated when you write to people that are
|
|
named in the userbase.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
When changing a message, the new edition is saved as if it were a new
|
|
message, with a new message number, and then the old edition is
|
|
deleted. This behaviour is consistent with the way <name/PCBoard/
|
|
itself works when changing a message. The old edition will still
|
|
exist with the <gi/DEL/ attribute.

AdeptXBBS

</head>
|

<p>
|
|
The implementation is based on the documentation in version 1.05,
|
|
experimentation and questions to the authors. Thanks go to
|
|
<name/Frank Jacobberger/ for the initial testing and prodding of the
|
|
authors to answer <name/Odinns/ questions :-)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <name/AdeptXBBS/ format does not have a quick method of finding
|
|
deleted messages via the index file. This means that deleted messages
|
|
left in the messagebase marked with the <gi/DEL/ attribute.

neither netmail nor echomail, <name/GoldED+/ wil treat it as a local

</p>
|

<p>
|

<name/GoldED+/ detects <name/Usenet/ (newsgroup) and <name/Internet/

e-mail areas in the <name/AdeptXBBS/ setup and uses them as such, but
|
|
it has not yet been tested if <name/GoldED+/ and <name/AdeptXBBS/ are

compatible in the way they store and process <name/Internet/ header

The <name/AdeptXBBS/ personal mail feature (the index in the

other users on the <abbr/BBS/. However, personal mail for you via
|
|
this feature or by other means is not yet supported.

</p>

<p>

The replylinking method used by <name/AdeptXBBS/ (whatever the method
|

is??!) is not yet supported. This means that links to other messages

WildCat!

</head>
|

<p>
|
|
The <name/WildCat!/ 4.x format does not have a quick method of
|
|
finding deleted messages via the index file. This means that deleted
|
|
messages left in the messagebase marked with the <gi/DEL/
|
|
attribute.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
WildCat features which are not supported yet:
|
|
<list type=simple>
|
|
<item/The userbase./
|
|
<item/The message unread chain./
|
|
<item>The message from/to title.</item>
|
|
<item/The message network name./
|
|
<item/The message internal and external attach./
|
|
</list>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is a keyword
|
|
<ref target=WILDCATUSERNO><kw/WILDCATUSERNO/</ref>, which works just
|
|
like the other <kw/><msgbase>USERNO</kw> keywords. By default
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ will use the first record in the lastread file
|
|
(<code/*.lrd/), so if you are not the first person in the userbase,
|
|
or you are sharing the messagebase with others, you may have to
|
|
change this user number. The userbase is currently not supported
|
|
(i.e.: you can't set the number to -1 to let <name/GoldED+/ find the
|
|
correct user and lastread automatically).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<hi/Note/: The <name/WildCat!/ support is currently not very
|
|
well-tested, so use it with caution. Limited testing shown that
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ not damages the messagebases, but you should probably
|
|
test it on less important areas and/or make backups until it is
|
|
determined that it is safe.

Nodelist and Userlist Support
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name>GoldED+</name> supports the <name>FrontDoor</name>,
|
|
<name>Version 7(+)</name> nodelist indexes as well as a plain
|
|
<code/fidouser.lst/. However, if you run software that doesn't use
|
|
any of these formats, you may want to use <name>GoldED+</name>'s own
|
|
nodelist index.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In order to enable nodelist/userlist lookup and browsing,
|
|
<name>GoldED+</name> needs to use a set of special nodelist index files,
|
|
created by the <name>GoldNODE</name> nodelist compiler.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name>GoldED+</name> normally uses and displays information from the
|
|
nodelist when browsing, but it doesn't really need the nodelist for
|
|
anything. The index files contains sufficient information for lookup and
|
|
browsing of names or addresses. This means that you can delete or pack
|
|
away the nodelists and/or userlists after compiling with
|
|
<name>GoldNODE</name>, if you want to save space and you don't need them
|
|
for anything else.

Turns on verbose config compile. When used, <name>GoldED+</name>

compiles. It also displays the name of the detected multitasker, if
|

any. This can be useful for debugging your setup, and see if

If used, <name/GoldED+/ will create (and overwrite if existing) the
|
|
file <code/goldarea.inc/, which will then contain all areas in the
|
|
<ref target=AREADEF><kw/AREADEF/</ref> form, sorted by your
|
|
<ref target=AREALISTSORT><kw>AREALISTSORT</kw></ref> specification.
|
|
This is very useful for converting your
|
|
<ref target=AREAFILE><kw/AREAFILE/</ref>'s to a form you can edit
|
|
with your favorite text editor and use in <name/GoldED+/. It is
|
|
also useful if you have used the new
|
|
<ref target=AREADESC><kw>AREADESC</kw></ref> keyword or the
|
|
<ref target=AREAFILE><kw/AREAFILE</ref>
|
|
<ref target=ECHOLIST><gi/EchoList/</ref> reader. The
|
|
<code>goldarea.inc</code> file (created in the
|
|
<ref target=GOLDPATH><kw/GOLDPATH/</ref>) can be used by adding<eg>
|
|
INCLUDE goldarea.inc</eg>
|
|
to your configuration files. When creating the file, <name/GoldED+/
|
|
will use <q/./ if an aka is the same as the main aka, and leave out
|
|
the optional origin if it's the same as the first
|
|
<ref target=ORIGIN><kw/ORIGIN/</ref> in your configuration files.
|
|
This makes it easier to share the same <code/goldarea.inc/ between
|
|
different setups.

Environment Variables
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
These are the <name>GoldED+</name> specific environment variables:
|
|
<list type=gloss>
|
|
<label id=GOLDED>
|
|
<kw/GOLDED/, <kw/GED/
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
Path to the <code/golded.cfg/ configuration file. Note, that
|
|
<name/Win32/ version tries to open <code/gedw32.cfg/ first, and
|
|
<name>OS/2</name> version tries to open <code/ged2.cfg/ first.
|
|
You may specify path <hi/and/ filename of configuration file here.
|
|
It is recommended to set this variable, but don't forget to change it
|
|
if you move your <name>GoldED+</name> setup to a different directory!
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
<kw/GED2/
|
|
</label>
|

<kw/GEDCMD/
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
Specifies additional commandline options. Use this if you want to
|
|
specify options, but need to run <name>GoldED</name> without them
|
|
(for example when renaming <code>GOLDED.EXE</code> to
|
|
<code>DBEDIT.EXE</code> in older versions of <name>D'Bridge</name>).
|
|
You can override the environment options with commandline options.
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label id=GOLDNODE>
|
|
<kw/GOLDNODE/
|
|
</label>
|

|
Any non-alphabetic non-whitespace character at the beginning of a
|
|
line makes the line a comment. By tradition, the semicolon is the
|
|
standard comment character. The semicolon (and only that) can also
|
|
be used to add a comment at the end of a configuration line.

Your network address, <name/FidoNet/-style. More than one address can

be specified if you are member of more than one network. The keywords

<kw/ADDRESS/ and <ref target=AKA><kw/AKA/</ref> can be used

|
interchangeably.
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
Parameters:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
If a <ident/pointnet/ is specified with a point address,
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ will use the so-called <term/3D/ addressing method in
|
|
netmail msgs, otherwise the <term/4D/ method is used. The <term/3D/
|
|
method works by putting the address
|
|
<ident>zone:pointnet/point.0</ident> in the msg header, instead of
|
|
the <term/4D/ format <ident>zone:net/node.point</ident>. Most modern
|
|
mailers and mail processors now supports the <term/4D/ format,
|
|
but if you are a point, you should always consult your boss about
|
|
which format to use.<lb>
|
|
The optional <ident/@domain/ part can be used to specify a
|
|
<term/fifth/ dimension to the <term/4D/ address. It is normally not
|
|
necessary to specify a domain. Domains are never shown in the header.

</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
Parameters:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
Setting this keyword to <ident/ALWAYS/ means that <name/GoldED+/ will
|
|
always add unknown addressees to the addressbook when writing new or

|
quoted mails automatically. If you set the value to <ident/YES/,
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ will add them only if it's a netmail/email. Setting to
|
|
<ident/NO/ disables this feature entirely.

Parameters:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
If defined to <ident/ORIGIN/ then address of sender taken from
|
|
<gi/Origin/ line. If this keyword set to <ident/MSGID/ then
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ looks for correct <abbr/FTN/ address in <gi/MSGID/
|
|
kludge first.

Description:

<item>
|
|
Defines a short name for often used addresses. Typical uses are for
|
|
<name/AreaFix//<name/AreaMgr/, your uplink, boss, points or others
|
|
you write to often. To use a defined address macro, you just type it
|
|
in the <gi/To:/ name field.
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
Parameters:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
If (and <hi>only</hi> if) the subject is enclosed in quotes (<q//
|
|
or ''), <name/GoldED+/ will look for message attributes after the
|
|
<ident/subject/ field. See the <ptr target=MESSAGEATTRS> for the
|
|
valid attributes. You cannot have quotes within quotes (not the same
|
|
type anyway). The attribues are <hi/added/ to the ones already there,
|
|
they do <hi/not/ replace them.<lb>
|
|
A special format is supported for <abbr/UUCP/ or <name/Internet/
|
|
gateways. The special format is indicated with a <q/@/ as the first
|
|
character in the <ident/name/ field. You may specify <name/Internet/
|
|
gate name here if it other then default specifyed with
|
|
<ref target=INTERNETGATE><kw/INTERNETGATE/</ref> keyword, just put
|
|
gate name right after the <q/@/ and terminate it with the slash
|
|
(<q>/</q>).
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
Notes:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
The address macros can also be specified in an external file, like
|
|
the <code/names.fd/ file supported by the <name/FrontDoor/
|
|
mailer/editor and <name/Maximus/ <abbr/BBS/. See the keyword
|
|
<ref target=NAMESFILE><kw/NAMESFILE/</ref> for details. However, you
|
|
should not use the syntax with the attributes in the <code/names.fd/
|
|
file, because <name/FrontDoor/ and <name/Maximus/ do not know this
|
|
syntax.<lb>
|
|
When used in the <name/Internet/ area, <q/@/ as the first character
|
|
in the <ident/name/ field may be omitted.

Your network address, <name/FidoNet/-style. More than one address can
|
|
be specified if you are member of more than one network. The keywords
|
|
<ref target=ADDRESS><kw/ADDRESS/</ref> and <kw/AKA/ can be used
|
|
interchangeably.
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
Parameters:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
If a <ident/pointnet/ is specified with a point address,
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ will use the so-called <term/3D/ addressing method in
|
|
netmail msgs, otherwise the <term/4D/ method is used. The <term/3D/
|
|
method works by putting the address
|
|
<ident>zone:pointnet/point.0</ident> in the msg header, instead of
|
|
the <term/4D/ format <ident>zone:net/node.point</ident>. Most modern
|
|
mailers and mail processors now supports the <term/4D/ format,
|
|
but if you are a point, you should always consult your boss about
|
|
which format to use.<lb>
|
|
The optional <ident/@domain/ part can be used to specify a
|
|
<term/fifth/ dimension to the <term/4D/ address. It is normally not
|
|
necessary to specify a domain. Domains are never shown in the header.

This is an enhancement of the existing aka matching logic, which in

some circumstances fails to find the correct aka.
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
Parameters:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
If the destination address matches <ident/pattern/ then
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ will use <ident/aka/ specifyed instead of default
|
|
best-match rule. All patterns are checked in the order they follow
|
|
in the configuration files.<lb>
|
|
Wildcards are not strictly necessary in the match <ident/pattern/,
|
|
you could write f.e. <q>zone:*/*.*</q> or <q>zone:</q>, etc.

<label>

|
Notes:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
When an address does not match any <kw>AKAMATCH</kw> definition, the
|
|
normal aka matching logic takes over.

It is recommended to use the newer
|
|
<ref target=AREADEF><kw>AREADEF</kw></ref> keyword, which allows more
|
|
detailed mail area setup.<lb>
|
|
If more than one area defined to the same path or areatag then last
|
|
definition overrides previous ones.

|
|
If more than one area defined to the same path or areatag then last
|
|
definition overrides previous ones.<lb>
|
|
The possibility of using <q/./ to specify the main <abbr/AKA/ and
|
|
the optional default origin makes it simpler to create a common
|
|
<ref target=INCLUDE><kw/INCLUDE/</ref>'able area configuration
|
|
for several setups with different addresses, for example two people
|
|
sharing the same msgbase.

With this keyword, you can define the echoids of areas which should
|
|
be ignored by <name/GoldED+/ (thereby leaving them out of the
|
|
arealist). This is normally used in connection with
|
|
<ref target=AREAFILE><kw/AREAFILE/</ref>, to exclude areas you are
|
|
not interested in reading.
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
Parameters:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
The <ident/<echoid mask>/ may contain <name>4DOS</name>-style
|
|
wildcards (<q/*/ and <q/?/). You may specify multiple masks separated
|
|
with commas.

Notes:

|
|
<item>
|
|
You can use the <ref target=AREAINCL><kw/AREAINCL/</ref> keyword to
|
|
reinclude areas which have been excluded with <kw/AREAEXCL/.<lb>
|
|
This keyword must be placed before any of
|
|
<ref target=AREA><kw/AREA/</ref>,
|
|
<ref target=AREADEF><kw/AREADEF/</ref>,
|
|
or <ref target=AREAFILE><kw/AREAFILE/</ref> keywords.

<name/GoldED+/ can read the area setup of many popular mailers,

|
mail processors and <abbr/BBS/'es, thereby making it much easier
|
|
and simpler to configure <name/GoldED+/ for the mail areas you

|
receive, by eliminating the need to write area definition lines for
|
|
all or most of your areas.

|
This keyword controls whether <name/GoldED+/ should write the file
|
|
<code/goldlast.lst/ in the <ref target=GOLDPATH><kw/GOLDPATH/</ref>
|
|
at exit and read it back when run next time. The contents of the file
|
|
is a list of lastread information for each area as it was at last
|
|
scan.<lb>
|
|
This feature is helpful when you know that there have not been tossed
|
|
new mail and don't want to wait for a full msgbase scan. Now you can
|
|
just hit <ESC> at the startup screen to abort the area scan and
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ will put up the lastread info from the previous
|
|
session.<lb>
|
|
It also makes the <q/new mail since last scan/ feature even better,
|
|
because the new mail marker now shows which areas that have new mail
|
|
since last session even when scanning areas at startup.

Parameters:

Allows you to specify a fixed or dynamically sized width of the
|
|
<gi/EchoID/ column in the arealist.
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
Parameters:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
If a negative value is specified, the width will be the that of the
|
|
widest echoid in the arealist plus the negative value. This might be
|
|
useful if some long-name echoes have uninteresting ends, such as
|
|
<gi/VERYLONGECHOID_R23.PUB/ (could benefit from a <ident/size/ of
|
|
-7). There is currently no provision for long echoids with common
|
|
beginning.

|
Notes:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
The arealist can dynamically resize the <gi/EchoID/ and
|
|
<gi/Description/ columns, so that long echoids are not cut off. The
|
|
sizing of the <q>EchoID</q> column is done against the
|
|
<gi/Description/ column, which thereby looses or gains width.

|
|
This feature provides a way to hide group ID on the arealist screen,
|
|
in a column to the right of the <gi/EchoID/ column. If a group ID is
|
|
not a letter in the range A-Z (a value in the range #65-#90),
|
|
the groupid is not shown anyway.
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
Parameters:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
If enabled, the arealist screen will display the groupid letters, if
|
|
any.

Notes:

The same effect is achieved by skipping <ident/G/ letter in the
|
|
<ref target=AREALISTFORMAT><kw/AREALISTFORMAT/</ref> definition.

Description:

|
|
This keyword allows you to define additional menu items for the
|
|
arealist scanning menus (<!-- FIX ME!!! --><kw/AREAscan/ or
|
|
<!-- FIX ME!!! --><kw/AREAscanpm/).
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
Parameters:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
The first two characters of the menu text are the <q/hotkey/ letter
|
|
that will be highlighted in the menu text, plus a space.<lb>
|
|
The filename specifies a plain text file, with the echoids (wildcards
|
|
allowed) of the areas you want to scan when the menu item is
|
|
selected. There can be several echoids on each line in the file. If
|
|
no path is given, the file is loaded from the
|
|
<ref target=GOLDPATH><kw/GOLDPATH/</ref>.<lb>
|
|
The <ident/-delete/ option will cause <name/GoldED+/ to delete the
|
|
list file after scanning the areas in it. For example, if your mail
|
|
processor generates a list of the areas that it tossed new mail to,
|
|
you could add the list as a menu item on the scanning menu and use it
|
|
to scan only those areas with new mail.
|
|
</item>
|
|
<label>
|
|
Notes:
|
|
</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
Some mail processors automatically delete their list after using it
|
|
for replylinking. You may want to do some creative stuff with
|
|
batchfiles to grab a copy.

Notes:

</label>
|
|
<item>
|
|
In practice <ident/M/ and <ident/Y/ will usually give the same
|
|
result, because <name/GoldED+/ automatically marks scanned areas if
|
|
they contain new mail.<lb>
|
|
The <ident/F/ enables fuzzy match sorting, which is very handy when
|
|
looking for an echoid containing a particular word. Let's say you
|
|
want a list of all <name/GoldED/ echoes. You can simply type
|
|
<q/GOLDED/ and then the arealist automatically sorts itself so that
|
|
all echoes with an echoid containing <q/GOLDED/ comes first.<lb>
|
|
The <ident/X/ sort type sorts areas according to msgbase type, in the
|
|
following order: <name/Hudson/, <name/Goldbase/, <name/JAM/,
|
|
<name/Squish/, <name/Opus/ <code/*.msg/, <name/FTS-0001/
|
|
<code/*.msg/, <name/Ezycom/, <name/PCBoard/.<lb>
|
|
The <ident/X/ and <ident/Z/ sort types were implemented for internal
|
|
use, to optimize area scanning speed. When scanning areas,
|
|
<name/GoldED+/ starts by sorting the arealist using the sortspec
|
|
defined with the <ref target=AREASCANSORT><kw/AREASCANSORT/</ref>
|
|
keyword.

|
|
Most <ref target=AREAFILE><kw/AREAFILE/</ref> types can find the path
|
|
using the environment variable(s) specific for the program(s). Such
|
|
environment variables (or a path specified with the
|
|
<ref target=AREAFILE><kw/AREAFILE/</ref> definition) always overrides
|
|
the <ref target=AREAFILE><kw/AREAFILE/</ref>.

enough to enter a message in a read-only area despite the warning menu.

AREARENAME <from echoid> <to echoid>

|
|
Renames one echoid to another. The feature is meant to be used in
|
|
connection with <kw>AREAFILE</kw>, where some types do not store
|
|
echoids with the areas (and <name>GoldED+</name> then automatically
|
|
gives them unique echoids).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Examples:<eg>
|

AREARENAME NET001 NETMAIL

|
If enabled, the destination area selection list is bypassed, thereby
|
|
making possible a <q>seamless</q> reply/forward to the default
|
|
destination area. The destination area should be set with
|
|
<kw>AREAREPLYTO</kw>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<hi>TIP:</hi> If you run a utility or have a mail processor which
|
|
copies personal mail to a separate area and puts an <q>AREA:</q> line
|
|
at the top of the messages, you should create a random system group for
|
|
the area and enable <kw>AREAREPLYDIRECT</kw> in it:<eg>
|
|
Group ECHO_PERSONAL
|
|
AreaReplyDirect yes
|
|
EndGroup</eg>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
With such a setup, <name>GoldED+</name> replies directly to the area
|
|
found in the <q>AREA:</q> line, so that you do not have to explicitly
|
|
use the <Alt-N> command to reply in the original area, because
|
|
<name>GoldED+</name> automatically stores the reply in the appropiate
|
|
area. However, if you use <ALT-N>, you can select a diffrent area
|
|
(i.e. Netmail).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This keyword can be used globally and in a Random System group.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<hi>NOTE:</hi> It is probably not a good idea to enable this keyword
|
|
globally.

If you find yourself often forwarding or quoting from one area to

When scanning areas, <name>GoldED+</name> can optimize area scanning
|
|
speed if it first sorts the arealist in an order so that each msgbase
|
|
format is scanned in sequence rather than on semi-random order.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you don't like this or don't need it, you can define your own sort
|
|
order.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
See the <kw>AREALISTSORT</kw> keyword for the definition of the
|
|
sortspecs.

AREASEP <echoid> <"desc"> <group> <type>

|

<p>
|
|
You can define area separation lines between groups or areatypes. The
|
|
syntax is nearly the same as the <kw>AREADEF</kw> keyword except for
|
|
the fields after <type>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Examples:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
These five are area separation lines that are designed to list before
|
|
each type of area. This works well when <kw>AREALISTSORT</kw> has
|
|
<ident>T</ident> (for type) as one of the primary sort orders.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Example:<eg><![ CDATA [
|
|
AREASEP !NET "Netmail areas" 0 Net
|
|
AREASEP !EMAIL "E-mail areas" 0 EMail
|
|
AREASEP !ECHO "Echomail areas" 0 Echo
|
|
AREASEP !NEWS "Newsgroup areas" 0 News
|
|
AREASEP !LOCAL "Local areas" 0 Local]]></eg>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
These can be used to separate areas with group letters (it will also
|
|
work with group numbers like #117). Areas should then be sorted
|
|
primarily on the group.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Example:<eg><![ CDATA [
|
|
AREASEP !A "Group A" A Local
|
|
AREASEP !B "Group B" B Local
|
|
AREASEP !C "Group C" C Local]]></eg>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In these examples, I put a <q>!</q> in front of the echoid to make
|
|
sure it is sorted ahead of the areas. This may not be necessary in all
|
|
cases, depending on the sort order in effect. If you do put
|
|
<q>!</q> in front of the echoid, have fuzzy sorting as the primary
|
|
sort order, and type <q>!</q> in the fuzzy search, you'll get the
|
|
interesting effect that all area separation lines collect themselves at
|
|
the top :-)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The area separation lines are implemented like a special kind of area,
|
|
and are therefore sorted in the arealist just as if they were actual
|
|
areas. This is also the reason why you can place the cursor bar on the
|
|
separation lines. Originally I wanted to make the cursor skip the
|
|
separation lines, but I think I'll leave it as it is, because it can be
|
|
useful sometimes, especially when using the fuzzy feature to quickly go
|
|
to an area, for example, type <q>!C</q> to quickly move down to
|
|
the group C areas (using the group sorted example).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
When configuring area separation lines, be careful to consider the
|
|
<kw>AREALISTSORT</kw>, so that the lines are sorted into the positions
|
|
you want. If you don't sort areas, you must make sure that the
|
|
<kw>AREASEP</kw> definitions are placed correctly in your
|
|
<code>GOLDED.CFG</code> or <code>GOLDAREA.CFG</code>, that is,
|
|
between/before <kw>AREADEF</kw> lines.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You will note that the separation lines are not fully connected into
|
|
the left and right edges. This is both by design and for practical
|
|
reasons (easier to implement), not a bug.

COLOR <colorspec>

</head>

<p>
|

Using this keyword you can define or redefine all the colors used
|
|
in <name>GoldED+</name>. See the Color Configuration chapter for details.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A complete color setup consists of a quite a lot of <kw>COLOR</kw>
|
|
keywords, and it is normal practice to put them in a separate .CFG
|
|
file and use the <kw>INCLUDE</kw> keyword to let <name>GoldED+</name> read it. The COLORS
|
|
archive contains a number of example color/mono setups. Try them
|
|
out if you think the default colors stink :-)

COLORSET <Normal/Intense/Mono>
|

</head>
|
|
<p>
|

(Normal or Mono)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Three color setups are built-in, and can be selected with this
|
|
keyword.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Normal set is the default when a color display adapter is
|
|
detected. The Normal set has all black background, with bright
|
|
neon-like colors for the window frames. Some hate it, some love
|
|
it. :-)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Intense set switches off the "blink" attribute, thereby
|
|
enabling the use of intense (bright) colors for the background
|
|
("paper") colors as well as the foreground ("ink") colors. This is
|
|
used in the Intense set to make a bright white background, sort of
|
|
like the standard Windows 3.0 setup.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Mono set is the default when a monochrome adapter is detected.

<p>

(GOLDED.CFM)

</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name>GoldED+</name> supports the Confirmation Receipt attribute, as used in
|
|
FrontDoor 2.xx with the FLAGS CFM kludge. If <name>GoldED+</name> finds an
|
|
unreceived message to one of your <kw>USERNAME</kw>'s with the CFM (or the
|
|
RRQ Return Receipt Request) attribute set, it generates an
|
|
automatic response message from the content of the <kw>CONFIRMFILE</kw>. In
|
|
the file you can use many of the template tokens to personalize
|
|
the automatic message. You can specify the default attributes for
|
|
the message with the <kw>ATTRIBSCFM</kw> keyword.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Template tokens are explained in the Message Template chapter.

An unreceived message to you with the CFM attribute set tells
|
|
<name>GoldED+</name> that the sender has requested a receipt that you have read
|
|
the message. With this keyword you tell <name>GoldED+</name> what to do when
|
|
such a message is found. Either always automatically generate the
|
|
receipt ("yes"), always ignore the requests ("no") or ask you in
|
|
each case. Older versions always generated receipts.

The area number is the same as that displayed in the leftmost

column in the arealist. This also means that the number displayed

board) or the standard sequential number (toggleable with Alt-B in

the arealist).

<name>GoldED+</name> can display the message numbers in two ways:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
1. As the actual (real) msg numbers.
|

2. As "relative" numbers, which are always sequential from msg
|
|
number 1.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>

Normally the relative numbers are best, because they reflect the

If enabled, <name>GoldED+</name> will treat the so-called Soft-CR character
|

(ASCII 141, HEX 8D) just like any other displayable character,
|
|
instead of ignoring it like linefeed chars (LF). Note that by
|
|
enabling this feature, you _disable_ the character translation
|
|
feature that uses the Soft-CR as an escape character. This feature
|
|
was added to help users in countries which use the Soft-CR
|
|
character for other purposes like 2-byte characters in Japan.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
NOTE: The Ezycom msgbase format requires the Soft-CR to terminate

each line. Therefore this feature is unlikely to be useful to

Ezycom sysops.

If a non-zero value is given, the internal editor will

If disaster strikes (crash, lockup, power blackout, etc.) while

you are writing a message in the internal editor, this feature

lets you continue from the last autosaved message, which will

popup automatically when you enter the internal editor again.

press a key after the interval has passed.

The keywords <kw>EDITCHARPARA</kw> and <kw>EDITCHARSPACE</kw> were added to aid me
|
|
while rewriting and debugging the new internal editor. By
|
|
redefining them to visible characters instead of spaces, I could
|
|
see if strange things were happening while inserting or deleting
|
|
characters. This was a great help. Personally I now always use
|
|
redefinitions to ASCII 20 (a paragraph sign) and CP437 250 (a

small dot).

EDITCOMMENT ":-)" "Are we having fun yet?"

EDITCOMMENT ";-)" "Wink wink, nudge nugde..."

EDITCOMMENT "!!!" "Flame Warning!"

EDITCOMPLETION <"abbreviation"> <"completion">

This feature allows you to define abbreviations which will be

automatically expanded to full words or sentences when typed in

the internal editor. Examples:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
EDITCOMPLETION "/Odin" "Odinn"
|
|
EDITCOMPLETION "/GED" "GoldED"
|
|
EDITCOMPLETION "/V7" "Version 7"
|
|
EDITCOMPLETION "/FD" "FrontDoor"
|
|
EDITCOMPLETION "/WfW" "Windows for Workgroups"
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
NOTE! The abbreviation is case-sensitive. If "XX" is defined as
|
|
an abbreviation, completion will NOT be triggered if "xx" is

typed.

If enabled, all text paragraphs in your messages will be

|
terminated with a CR/LF combination. If disabled, only a single CR
|
|
is used. This option was created to fix a problem with an older

|
version of the Dutchie mail processor, that apparently needed the

CR/LF termination of kludge lines.

|
The string is needed if you use an external editor that terminates
|
|
all lines with a CR or CR/LF. The hardline string acts as a text
|
|
paragraph terminator, and the normal CR's are ignored.
|

The New, Changes, Replies and Forwards values can be combined. YES
|
|
is equivalent to enabling all four of these.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
For example, we want to edit the header only when entering a new
|
|
message or when changing a message:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
EDITHEADERFIRST New, Changes
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the circumstances match the setup of this keyword, the header
|
|
edit will be bypassed and you will start directly in the <kw>EDITMENU</kw>
|
|
(if enabled) or in the internal or external editor. A new menu
|
|
item has been added in the <kw>EDITSAVEMENU</kw>, "Edit Header", which
|
|
allows you to edit the header after you have written your message,
|
|
but before it is finally saved.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you set <kw>EDITHEADERFIRST</kw> to NO, you must either have the
|
|
<kw>EDITSAVEMENU</kw> enabled, or use the internal editor, because

otherwise it is not possible to edit the header at all.

The first two characters of the menu text are the "hotkey" letter
|
|
that will be highlighted in the menu text, plus a space. Example:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
EDITSAVEUTIL 1 "S PGP Sign the msg"
|
|
EDITSAVEUTIL 2 "l PGP Clear-Sign the msg"
|
|
EDITSAVEUTIL 3 "E PGP Encrypt the msg"
|
|
EDITSAVEUTIL 4 "p PGP Encrypt & Sign the msg"
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you have changed the default language in this menu (in
|
|
GOLDLANG.CFG), then make sure the highlight letters don't clash.
|

<p>
|
|
With <kw>EDITSAVEUTIL</kw> definitions and <kw>EDITSAVEMENU</kw> enabled, you can
|
|
directly call an external utility to do things like encoding or
|
|
encrypting msgs before saving them.

While in the internal editor, you can use the <kw>EDITspellcheck</kw>
|

command to save your message to a file and shell to external
|
|
spellchecking software. When the check is completed, the corrected
|
|
file is read back and you can continue editing your message. The

|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The parameter to PLAY can be either a sound file or one of the
|
|
following standard beepnoises:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
TheEnd A high and a low note.
|
|
GotIt Two sets of low-high notes.
|
|

|
|
SayBiBi A single beep.
|
|
SOS Morse S O S (...---...).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If a sound file is specified, the sound driver must support the
|
|
format.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The DOS and 386 versions need a Goldware Sound API compatible TSR
|
|
or program loader which installs an interrupt service function on
|
|
the multiplex interrupt 2Dh. See the chapter about the Goldware
|
|
Sound API for more details. The GCTVSAPI program loader (released
|
|
separately) currently only supports the CT-VOICE.DRV driver for
|
|
.VOC files.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The OS/2 version relies on MMPM/2 (using the mciSendString API
|
|
call) to play the sound files. On my system with a Sound Blaster
|
|
Pro, MMPM/2 plays both .WAV and (to my surprise) .VOC files. It
|
|
even plays .MID files :-)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Win32 version uses the Win32 API to play the sound files. It
|
|
should be able to play any multimedia file that Windows knows how
|
|
to handle.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Example usages:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
EVENT MsgToYou PLAY HIMAN.VOC
|
|
EVENT MsgIsTwit PLAY SHOTGUN.VOC
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You have to select the sounds carefully and probably with a lot of
|
|
experimentation, unless you want to turn your mailreader into a
|
|
honking, wailing and farting monster and drive your poor family or
|
|
yourself nuts with a cacophony of noises...

EXTERNOPTIONS <-options>
|

</head>
|

<p>
|

Defines the default options for the <kw>EXTERNUTIL</kw>'s. Valid options:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
-Cls * Clear screen.
|
|
-Cursor * Cursor in shell.
|
|
-KeepCtrl * Keep control lines in the message.
|
|
-Pause Pause for keypress before returning to <name>GoldED+</name>.
|
|
-PauseOnError * Pause only if utility errorlevel is nonzero.
|
|
-Reload * Reload the message file (@file).
|
|
-Wipe Wipe editorfile and temporary file after use.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Plus the reverse options with a "No" prefix, for example -NoCls.
|
|
The default options are marked with an asterisk (*).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Use -NoKeepCtrl when you want to clearsign a message. This will
|
|
strip the control lines (kludges, tearline and origin) from the
|
|
message before passing it to the external utility. The tearline
|
|
and origin is appended to the message when reloading it. The
|
|
default is to keep control lines in the message.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Use -Wipe when you want the temporary unencrypted message files to
|
|
be wiped and removed from the disk after they have been read into
|
|
memory. <name>GoldED+</name> wipes a file by writing a block of 512 random bytes
|
|
over the entire length of the file, then truncating it to zero
|
|
bytes and finally deleting it. The default is not to wipe files.

EXTERNUTIL <utilno> [-options] <commandline>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This new feature can be used to "filter" msgs, for example calling
|
|
PGP or other encryption utilities.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <utilno> must be in the range 1 to 24 for utilities that will
|
|
be called with key definitions (see below). Higher numbers can be
|
|
used for utilities that are called from the <kw>EDITSAVEMENU</kw> (if
|
|
enabled). See the <kw>EDITSAVEUTIL</kw> keyword for details.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The default options are those specified with the <kw>EXTERNOPTIONS</kw>
|
|
keyword. With [-options], you can change the those options locally
|
|
for specific utils. See the <kw>EXTERNOPTIONS</kw> keyword for a list of
|
|
valid options.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <commandline> specfies the DOS or OS/2 commandline you want to
|
|
execute. This works in the same way as for the external editor and
|
|
spellchecker. See the manual for details about this, especially if
|
|
you want to execute batchfiles. In the <commandline> you can use
|
|
@tokens to transfer information from the msg to the commandline.
|
|
The @tokens are the same as for templates, and in addition you can
|
|
use two other @tokens:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
@path The GOLDPATH, including a trailing backslash.
|
|
@file The full filename of the message file (GOLDED.MSG)
|
|
that will be written to disk before the utility is
|
|
called.
|
|
@tmpfile The full filename of a temporary message file
|
|
(GEDTMPxx.xxx) that will be written to disk before the
|
|
utility is called.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Examples:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
EXTERNUTIL 1 c:\4dos\4dos.com /c c:\crypt\encrypt.bat @file
|
|
EXTERNUTIL 2 c:\4dos\4dos.com /c c:\crypt\decrypt.bat @file
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
To call a defined external utility, you must assign a key to it.
|
|
There are 24 new keyboard commands you can use in GOLDKEYS.CFG for
|
|
this purpose:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
ExternUtilNN
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Where NN is in the range 01 to 24 _with_ leading zero. Examples:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
F11 ExternUtil01
|
|
F12 ExternUtil02
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Then if you press F11, you would call external utility number 1
|
|
and so on. The <kw>ExternUtilNN</kw> keywords ONLY work in reader mode, not
|
|
in the internal editor or any other place.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
HOW IT WORKS:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
1. Just before the external utility is called, <name>GoldED+</name> writes the
|
|
current message text to the GOLDED.MSG file in the GOLDPATH.
|
|
The file is written as a textfile with each line CR-LF
|
|
terminated. The content is exactly as you see it on the
|
|
screen, which means that kludges are only included if you have
|
|
enabled kludge viewing. If the -NoKeepCtrl option is used,
|
|
kludges, tearline and origin are stripped before the file is
|
|
written. If the token @tmpfile is used, a temporary file named
|
|
GEDTMPxx.xxx (where xx.xxx is something unique) is created
|
|
with exactly the same content as @file.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
2. <name>GoldED+</name> clears the screen and then calls the utility.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
3. The utility can now load and process the @file and/or
|
|
@tmpfile, or do anything else you want. It doesn't have to
|
|
have anything to do with the current msg. You could call a
|
|
spreadsheet, a game, whatever. But I think this feature will
|
|
mainly be used for utilities that process the @file. If the
|
|
utility processes the @file, it could write the changes back
|
|
to the @file.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
4. After returning from the utility, <name>GoldED+</name> reloads the @file and
|
|
displays it just as if it was the current message. For
|
|
example, if your utility was a decrypter and the msg was
|
|
encrypted, you would now see the decrypted msg. Neat eh? :-)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
5. If you want to make the reloaded text permanent (save it in
|
|
the msg), you can use the Change Msg function and immediately
|
|
choose "Save Message" from the Editing menu (if enabled with
|
|
EDITMENU Yes). This is in fact the method you could use if you
|
|
wanted to EN-crypt a msg (however, it is easier to use the
|
|
method which involves the EDITSAVEUTIL keyword).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The QUOTESPACING feature can interfere with encoded msgs that
|
|
include the '>' character at the beginning of lines (often seen in
|
|
uuencoded msgs), by automatically inserting blank lines before and
|
|
after the lines with '>'. I have therefore changed the
|
|
quotespacing default from YES to NO. Be sure to check if you have
|
|
a different setting if you are using an older edition of the
|
|
advanced configuration files.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the string "-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----" is found as the first
|
|
27 characters in a reloaded message, <name>GoldED+</name> will automatically add
|
|
the FSC-0073 kludge "^aENC: PGP" to indicate that the message is
|
|
encrypted. This kludge may be used by some software to set up
|
|
alternative routing for encrypted mail which would otherwise be
|
|
bounced if sent through normal channels.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
See the "Using PGP as an External Utility" chapter for batchfile
|
|
examples and instructions on how to use this new feature with PGP.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
!!! IMPORTANT !!! From FidoNet Policy 4.07 (chapter 2.1.4):
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
"[..] Therefore, encrypted and/or commercial traffic that is
|
|
routed without the express permission of all the links in the
|
|
delivery system constitutes annoying behavior."
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
So be careful with this feature!
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
TIP: You can use the EXTERNUTIL feature to setup keys to view or
|
|
print an attached fax. Use something like this in GOLDED.CFG:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
EXTERNUTIL 11 c:\zfax\zfax.com pf @subject ; print fax
|
|
EXTERNUTIL 12 c:\zfax\zfax.com vf @subject ; view fax
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
And this in GOLDKEYS.CFG:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
@F11 ExternUtil11 ; Press Alt-F11 to print the fax
|
|
@F12 ExternUtil12 ; Press Alt-F12 to view the fax
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Or choose your own key assignments and fax view/print utils.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that this assumes that the fax file is listed in the subject
|
|
line like an attached file.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
NOTE: If you're running <name>GoldED+</name>/386 and try to use a Win32 program
|
|
as an EXTERNUTIL, you might get the error "This program cannot be
|
|
run in DOS mode". You can work around this by calling the Win32
|
|
program via the shell. For example if this call fails:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
EXTERNUTIL 1 c:\utl\mywin32.exe @file
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Replace it with:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
EXTERNUTIL 1 command.com /c c:\utl\mywin32.exe @file
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Then it should work. If not, try using full path to command.com.

were created/handled by brain-dead programs (I don't have names,
|
|
sorry) which are not obeying our primary technical standard:
|
|
FTS-0001. FTS-1 states that a NUL terminates the msg body. But
|
|
sometimes msgs are encountered which have a NUL as the first char
|
|
in the msg body or perhaps in other places, thereby causing <name>GoldED+</name>
|
|
to show a blank or cut-off msg. In some Pascal-based readers, such
|
|
as FM, these msgs can be read anyway, because in Pascal a NUL does
|
|
not terminate a string like in C/C++.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
NOTE: Even if the new FIDONULLFIX keyword is disabled, <name>GoldED+</name> will
|
|
still fix a NUL if it is the _first_ character in the msg body.
|
|
This probably fixes most of these buggy msgs without the overhead
|
|
of checking the entire msg.

This file is expected to be sorted in ascending alphabetical order
|

using plain ASCII case-insensitive sort. Each line in the list is

|
expected to be 60 characters plus a CR and a LF, or in other words
|
|
records of 62 bytes each. If the list is produced by a nodelist
|
|
compiler, everything should be okay, but be careful if you have
|

edited the file manually. Note that a FIDOUSER.LST file only

supports a name lookup (to get the address).

FILEALIAS <alias> <filename>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Used to define short alias names for filenames. If you regularly
|
|
write msgs to different files in different paths, this feature is
|
|
very useful, and reduces the risk of typing wrong.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Example:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
FILEALIAS DKB R:\DKBBS\DKBBS
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
With this file alias, you can simply write "DKB" at the filename
|
|
prompt, and the long filename will be used.

If enabled, <name>GoldED+</name> will popup a template selection menu when you

|
|
FORCETEMPLATE in a Random System group, you can tell <name>GoldED+</name> to use
|
|
the random template(s) by hitting ESC instead of selecting from
|

<p>
|
|
With this keyword you can add extra known filename extensions for
|
|
the filerequest function. The following extensions are already
|
|
known by default, and need not be defined (duplicate definitions
|
|
are ignored):
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
.ARC .ARJ .DOC .EXE .GIF .LHA .LZH .JPG .PAK .PNG .RAR .RUN .SDA
|
|
.SDN .TXT .ZIP .ZOO
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Each extension _must_ have the leading dot.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|

Example: FRQEXT .XYZ

<head>
|
|
FRQNODEMAP <to-node> <from-node>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This keyword is used for the file request feature (Ctrl-F). It
|
|
allows you to define mappings from a nodenumber used in a file
|
|
announcement to another nodenumber. This is useful in the cases
|
|
where a multi-line system announces files using their primary
|
|
nodenumber, which may be a regular V34 modem number, but they also
|
|
have an ISDN number, which you would prefer to use instead.
|
|
Examples:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
// change-to: from:
|
|
FRQNODEMAP 2:236/99 2:236/100
|
|
FRQNODEMAP 2:236/1043 2:236/43
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
So, if I saw a file announcement from 2:236/100, and requested
|
|
some files, the request would automatically be addressed to
|
|
2:236/99.

(FromTop)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Defines options for the file request function:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Sort Sort the list of files alphabetically.
|
|
FromTop Scan the message from the top of the message.
|
|
NotFromTop Scan the message from the top of the screen.
|
|
NoFiles Don't list the file FILES if no files were found.
|
|
NoWazooMsg Don't save the request message.
|
|
Fast Bypass the header edit and save the msg immediately.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
By default, the "FromTop" option is enabled. If you often request
|
|
files from very long announcement messages, you might find it very
|
|
useful to set the "NotFromTop" option.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The "NoFiles" option was added because if no filenames are found
|
|
in a message, the file request function defaults to listing the
|
|
magic name FILES instead of complaining that no files were found.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the FRQWAZOO keyword is enabled, the default behaviour is to
|
|
save the request message with the FRQ attribute stripped. Use the
|
|
"NoWazooMsg" option if you don't want the request message.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Use the "Fast" option if you find that you almost never change the
|
|
destination of the file request message anyway. If you enable this
|
|
option, remember that you can always go over to the netmail area
|
|
and change the file request message before it is sent.
|

</p>

<p>
|
|
The UseFlowFile option enables a feature which was default in
|
|
2.50, but which I have been informed is problematic for modern
|
|
mailers in some setups. The default is now to ONLY create/update
|
|
the .REQ file and NOT also touch/create a .?LO flowfile.

If enabled, <name>GoldED+</name> updates (increases) the "timesread" field in
|
|
each message that you read. If set to NO, it doesn't touch the
|
|
message. The YES setting causes a slight performance decrease,
|
|
because the header of each message has to be read, the timesread
|
|
field updated and the header written back to disk. The update
|
|
happens immediately after the message is displayed, so you may not
|
|
notice it at all. A message is only updated if the timesread field
|
|
contains the value 0 (zero).
|

</p>
|

<p>
|
|
This keyword only works in the following msgbase formats: Fido
|
|
(*.MSG), Hudson, Goldbase, JAM, Squish, Ezycom and AdeptXBBS. In
|
|
Squish and Ezycom, there is no timesread field, but I have annexed
|
|
a reserved message attribute (in Squish, 0x00080000, now called
|
|
MSGSEEN; in Ezycom, extattr 0x80) for the purpose of marking a
|
|
message as read at least once. The other formats (PCBoard,
|
|
WildCat) have no timesread field, but they have reserved fields or
|
|
attributes which *could* be used. Let me know if you want this.

This keyword, together with IMPORTEND, defines some text to add in

leading or trailing spaces are needed. The quotes are stripped.

Defines the local Internet gate you use when sending netmail to
|
|
Internet users. This option is activated when you write an
|
|
Internet address in the TO: field in the header display. <name>GoldED+</name>
|
|
detects the Internet address by looking for the '@' character. If
|
|
detected, <name>GoldED+</name> puts the gate address from INTERNETGATE in the
|
|
TO: address field. If you have defined the optional gate name
|
|
(typically UUCP), <name>GoldED+</name> also replaces the typed Internet address
|
|
with the gate name and puts the Internet address in a TO: line in
|
|
the message body. Some gate software accepts the Internet address
|
|
directly in the header, while other software may need the special
|
|
(UUCP) name and a separate TO: line. Examples:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
INTERNETGATE UUCP, 1:105/42 ; Standard, with gate name
|
|
INTERNETGATE 2:230/9316 ; My uplink runs GIGO software
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This keyword can be used globally in GOLDED.CFG, if you only ever
|
|
use one gate, or in GROUP's for specific areas in GOLDRAND.CFG if
|
|
you have multiple netmail areas and regularly use more than one
|
|
gate.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
NOTE: If you enable the INTERNETRFCBODY keyword, you should always
|
|
use the gatename UUCP, because otherwise the gateway software may
|
|
send duplicate copies (carbon copies) of your e-mails.

|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If set to Yes, <name>GoldED+</name> will check the systemname in the nodelist
|
|
when doing a lookup and if the systemname looks like an Internet
|
|
address (contains an '@' char), the msg will be addressed to that
|
|
Internet address using the INTERNETGATE name/address if defined.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
For example, let's say there was something like this in the
|
|
nodelist:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
,999,somebody@somewhere,Whereever,Some_Body,...
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
And this in my GOLDED.CFG:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
INTERNETLOOKUP Yes
|
|
INTERNETGATE 2:230/9316
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Then if I did a lookup of "Some Body" and selected the entry with
|
|
the Internet address, <name>GoldED+</name> would make a msg looking like this:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
From : odinn@winboss.dk 2:236/77
|
|
To : somebody@somewhere 2:230/9316
|
|
Subj : whatever
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Or if my gate was defined as "INTERNETGATE UUCP 2:230/9316":
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
From : odinn@winboss.dk 2:236/77
|
|
To : UUCP 2:230/9316
|
|
Subj : whatever
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
To: somebody@somewhere
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
So what's the use of all this? It allows you to make a
|
|
nodelist-style list of users with Internet addresses and use it
|
|
with <name>GoldED+</name> so that you can do a lookup of normal names instead of
|
|
trying to remember strange Internet addresses. Of course something
|
|
similar could be done using the ADDRESSMACRO's, but with the
|
|
nodelist approach, you could build a "network" of users which have
|
|
offline Internet access via FTN-gate software and distribute the
|
|
nodelist for automatic processing.

the RFC1036 format in MSGID breaks the FTS-9 (version 001)

the SOUPEMAIL and SOUPNEWSRCFILE keywords or using the Email and

correctly. If disabled, <name>GoldED+</name> only uses the FSC-35 method if the
|
|
Internet address is too large to fit in the max-35-character TO:
|

header field. Some gate software requires that the FSC-35 method
|

is used, while other software accepts Internet addresses directly

in the header.

be used when receiving Internet mail as QWK packets where the RFC

sending Internet mail via FTN packet to a gateway running GIGO.
|

GIGO does not recognize RFC header in kludges, but it does

recognize them at the top of the messages, if it is properly

This is used to invalidate (change) certain control strings in

quoted text. Use this in conjunction with old versions of D'Bridge
|
|
or other software that chokes on control strings in quoted text.
|
|
As an added bonus feature, if the tearline or origin is

invalidated to a null string (""), they will not be quoted at all.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <type> can be one of the following:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Tearline Invalidate tearline ("---").
|
|
Origin Invalidate origin (" * Origin: ").
|
|
Seenby Invalidate SEEN-BY's.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
By default, the following invalidations are used:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
INVALIDATE Tearline "---" "-+-"
|
|
INVALIDATE Origin " * Origin: " " + Origin: "
|
|
INVALIDATE Seenby "SEEN-BY" "SEEN+BY"
|

If you want to disable invalidation entirely, use this:

INVALIDATE Origin " * Origin: " " * Origin: "
|

<p>

(no)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The default setting makes <name>GoldED+</name> conform to the JAMAPI specs when
|
|
deleting msgs in JAM msgbases. This means that deleted msgs are
|
|
only marked as such in the message header, not in the index. As a
|
|
result, <name>GoldED+</name> will find and display the deleted msgs until you
|
|
run a message pack utility to physically remove the deleted msgs.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If JAMHARDDELETE is set to Yes, <name>GoldED+</name> will zap the reference to
|
|
the message in the index when deleting msgs. This way the deleted
|
|
msgs will not show up again later. The drawback of this approach
|
|
is that it is hard to undelete msgs, and may break other software
|
|
which assume 100% to-the-letter conformance to the specs. Note
|
|
however, that the hard-delete method is transparent to normal use
|
|
of JAM msgbases. Probably the only software that might break are
|
|
undelete utilities.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
For the techies and programmers, the hard-delete method is simply
|
|
setting both UserCRC and HdrOffset in the index to 0xFFFFFFFF
|
|
instead of only the UserCRC. According to the JAMAPI specs, a
|
|
value of 0xFFFFFFFF in HdrOffset means that "there is no
|
|
corresponding message header". Sounds remarkably like a deleted
|
|
msg, right? :-)

<name>GoldED+</name> can handle enviroment variables correctly in paths

C:\POINT\path\name.
|

NOTE: The translation is done at config compile time, so if you

|
change the environment variable and haven't changed anything else

it with the -F or -FF command parameter.

The definition may optionally be enclosed in quotes. A definition

must be enclosed in quotes if it contains leading or trailing

|
|
as "known" in addition to the built-in known kludges.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|

Here are a bunch of examples, most of which are kludges generated

The kludges defined with KLUDGE are not case-sensitive, but when

means that for example "RFC-" will match all kludges beginning

there is also a @loadlanguage template token. This way you can

The userbase lookup feature is not new, but a need arose for an

option to turn off the lookup. I decided to let the default be to

disable the lookup. Previously the lookup was always enabled.

MAILINGLIST <echoid> <senderaddress> [contribution address]
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Defines one or more mailing lists. When importing e-mail from a
|
|
SOUP packet, <name>GoldED+</name> will look at the Internet address in the
|
|
"Sender" header and if it matches one of the MAILINGLIST's, the
|
|
e-mail will be tossed to the defined area. Note that <name>GoldED+</name>
|
|
supports only participation in, not hosting of mailing lists. The
|
|
contribution address is the destination Internet address for mail
|
|
you write to the mailing list - the address is typically given to
|
|
you when you subscribe to a list. If the contribution address is
|
|
not specified, the senderaddress is assumed.

MAILTOSS <echoid> <contribution-address> <pattern>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This is acutally the same as MAILINGLIST in disguise with the
|
|
parameters recorded and it also enables the full set of pattern
|
|
matching. The <pattern> can be written exactly as if in the prompt
|
|
for the advanced search feature.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Any number of MAILTOSS lines can be given for a particular list,
|
|
if there is for some reason no single way to identify the list.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
When determining the contribution address, the first MAILTOSS
|
|
(or MAILINGLIST) that matches the echoid is chosen.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
MAILTOSS and MAILINGLIST can both be used at the same time and for
|
|
the same lists. MAILINGLIST is always the faster, because it looks
|
|
only at specific headerlines. MAILTOSS uses much more complex
|
|
pattern matching and can even match based on message body content.

MAPPATH <server filespec> <local filespec>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This keyword is used to map paths, for example if you have
|
|
different drive letters on a server machine and a workstation. You
|
|
might have your FidoNet mailer and mail processor setup to run
|
|
with the server drive letter (C:), but run <name>GoldED+</name> from a
|
|
workstation where that drive is mapped to a different letter (J:).
|
|
If you use AREAFILE's to get the area configuration for <name>GoldED+</name>,
|
|
you need to use MAPPATH to map the server drive letter to the
|
|
workstation equivalent.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Another case might be that you have a setup with DOS-style paths
|
|
and want to run the Linux version with the same <name>GoldED+</name> setup. You
|
|
can then use MAPPATH to map the DOS drive-based paths to Unix
|
|
style paths.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Examples:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
MAPPATH C: J:
|
|
MAPPATH C:\ /mnt/dos/c/
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
NOTE: You don't have to worry about backslash/forwardslash in this
|
|
case - they are always mapped automatically to the correct type
|
|
for the operating system.

"arrived" date, which is why I implemented this feature.

The key command LISTtoggledate (Ctrl-D) toggles between them.

The message lister can operate in two ways, fast or slow. In the
|
|
fast mode, only the message headers are loaded for the list
|
|
information. Depending on the msgbase format and message type,
|
|
some information may not be quite the same when presented in the
|
|
lister because information which is gathered from kludges or other
|
|
control information in the message text will be missing. Most of
|
|
the time this may not be a problem, so if you want speed, chose
|
|
the fast mode (default).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The slow mode loads and fully interprets the content of each
|
|
message before the message list is presented. The slowness is most
|
|
noticable when entering the lister and when paging up and down.
|
|
You may want to use the slow mode for areas with Internet
|
|
newsgroups and e-mail, where <name>GoldED+</name> uses the "From" kludge to get
|
|
the real name of the message writer.

be in the standard "St.Louis" nodelist format, but they can also

contain FrontDoor/Version7 style Boss/Point extensions. The
|
|
default zone is defined by the first ADDRESS or AKA, but can be
|
|
overridden by adding the zone number or a full address after the
|
|
filename. <name>GoldED+</name> currently needs it's own special index files to
|
|
use the nodelists. These index files are created by GoldNODE.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<file> Nodelist file. If the extension is .999 or a

|
wildcard (".*"), the newest file with a numeric

extension is used.

[zone/addr] Default zone or address for the nodelist (if no

zone info is present in the list itself).

NOTE: If you have nodelists with duplicate some of each others

nodes, the nodelist with the newest or most correct entries should

<p>
|

Specifies options regarding the personal mail scan feature. None

of them are enabled by default.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the "startup" option is used, <name>GoldED+</name> scans for personal mail
|
|
while doing the startup mail scan.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the "allnames" option is used, <name>GoldED+</name> scans for mail to all the
|
|
USERNAME's instead of only the first. The default is not to scan
|
|
for personal mail at startup and to scan only for the first name.
|
|
This is faster.

|
</p>
|

<p>
|

PERSONALMAIL Startup, AllNames

Ask A menu asks you to select append/overwrite/skip.

Append Always append, no asking.

The quotebuffer feature automatically creates special filenames

|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
FORMAT FILENAME LOCATION
|
|
Fido GOLDED.QBF In the directory with the *.MSG's.
|
|
Hudson GOLDHxxx.QBF In the HUDSONPATH.
|
|
Squish filename.QBF Where the Squish area is.
|
|
Ezycom GLDxxxxx.QBF In the EZYCOMMSGPATH.
|
|
JAM filename.QBF Where the JAM area is.
|
|
Goldbase GOLDGxxx.QBF In the GOLDBASEPATH.
|
|
PCBoard filename.QBF Where the PCBoard area is.

QUOTECHARS ["]<chars>["]
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Defines up to 10 chars to recognize in addition to '>' as quote
|
|
string chars. This is most useful in gated Internet newsgroups,
|
|
where chars such as '|', ':' and ';' are sometimes used instead of
|
|
the '>'.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This keyword can be used globally and in Random System groups.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Example:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Group Internet:
|
|
Member alt.*, comp.*, net.email
|
|
Quotechars "|:;"
|
|
Username odinn@winboss.dk
|
|
EndGroup
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The example is similar to the one I use myself (net.email is a
|
|
local netmail area where I import my gated e-mail from
|
|
winboss.dk). The username is my actual Internet address.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that using additional quotechars such as '|' and ':' may
|
|
cause odd results when quoting in the cases when they are actually
|
|
NOT used in a message as quotechars. Consider for example quoting
|
|
a smiley :-)

the conference names listed on line 13 and on alternate lines

</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
KLUDGES/NOKLUDGES: Defaults to NOKLUDGES. Specifies whether or not
|
|
to include the FidoNet-style kludges at the top of messages when
|
|
exporting to QWK. NOTE: Unless you enable this option, <name>GoldED+</name> will
|
|
*not* include kludges in your QWK packets. You should check if the

|
BBS supports kludges in QWK packets. If it does, please enable
|
|
this option.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
MIXCASE/NOMIXCASE: Defaults to NOMIXCASE. Specifies whether or not

the BBS allows mixed upper/lower case in the QWK message headers.
|
|
The default is to uppercase the TO and FROM header fields when
|
|
exporting to QWK packets.
|

<p>
|
|
RECEIPT/NORECEIPT: Defaults to NORECEIPT. Specifies whether or not

the BBS supports return receipt requests (RRQ). If the RECEIPT
|

</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name>GoldED+</name> supports the two different formats of the Hudson USERS.BBS
|
|
file. With this keyword you can tell <name>GoldED+</name> which format to use.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If set to YES, the RA2 format is used. Otherwise if the it is set
|
|
to NO, the Hudson format is used.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If this keyword is NOT used, <name>GoldED+</name> tries to detect the format by
|
|
looking at the size of the USERS.BBS file and comparing this to
|
|
the record sizes of the RA2 and Hudson formats.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the size matches one and not the other, the format is detected
|
|
to be of the matching type.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the size matches both (which is quite normal), <name>GoldED+</name> looks for
|
|
the RA environment variable and if found, in the RA config files
|
|
for the RA version.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the size does not match either of them (indicating a possibly
|
|
damaged userfile), <name>GoldED+</name> exits with an error message and writes
|
|
in the log with details of the problem and an advise to run a
|
|
userbase packing utility.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|

If used, this keyword should be placed in the configuration file

resetted. It is useful if your netmail tracker sets RCV flag

REPLYLINK <chain/direct>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Defaults to "direct" for JAM and "chain" for everything else.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If set to "direct", <name>GoldED+</name> will link your reply directly to the
|
|
original message. If set to "chain", it will link to the last
|
|
message in the reply chain. The default ("chain") is how <name>GoldED+</name>
|
|
has done it in all previous versions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The advantage of the "direct" linking method is that you can
|
|
easily find the the original message the reply was for. Unless of
|
|
course you have later re-linked using a chain-linking replylinker
|
|
utility. I can recommend the utility SQLINK by Serge Terekhov.
|
|
SQLINK links Squish areas using the MSGID/REPLY kludges and makes
|
|
direct links instead of chain-linking on the subject line like
|
|
most other replylinkers do. There are probably also similar
|
|
replylinkers for other msgbase formats, I just don't know them.

area, <name>GoldED+</name> pops up a list of the replies. This keyword affects
|
|
the contents of the list.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the "fast" mode, the list data is based solely on what can be
|
|
found by reading the message header, which is quite fast.
|
|
Unfortunately some software does not (or cannot) fill the header
|
|
with the correct origination address. In that case, set this
|
|
keyword to "full", which makes <name>GoldED+</name> read and scan each message
|
|
for control data to get the origination address. That can be very
|
|
slow.

ROBOTNAME <name>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A "robot" is a program on the Boss or Uplink system which responds
|
|
automatically to netmail messages. Usually the robot links or
|
|
unlinks echomail areas or distributed files.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The following ROBOTNAME's are defined by default:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
AreaFix, AreaMgr, FileFix, AreaLink, AllFix, Raid, GEcho.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you write a netmail message where the TO: name is one of the
|
|
robot names, <name>GoldED+</name> will ignore any template definition, and give
|
|
you a blank msg (possibly with a tearline) to edit.

</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If non-zero, <name>GoldED+</name> will blank the screen after the defined number
|
|
of seconds, and put a small moving window up instead. Hitting any
|
|
key (including shiftkeys) will return the screen to normal. If
|
|
zero, no blanking is done.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the additional parameter "BLACK" is given, <name>GoldED+</name> will switch
|
|
the screen completely black instead of showing its own animated
|
|
screenblanker. This is useful if you have a monitor with
|
|
powersaving-features.

SCREENPALETTE <reg> <value> OR <reg> (red green blue)
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can change the color palette used in <name>GoldED+</name>. The palette has
|
|
16 color registers, corresponding to the 16 colors from black (0)
|
|
to intense white (15). By changing the values in the palette
|
|
registers, it is possible to make any of the 16 colors a
|
|
completely different color. You can even make the background
|
|
colors intense, without using the intense color feature. There are
|
|
64 different colors to chose from.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
To configure the palette colors in <name>GoldED+</name>, the SCREENPALETTE
|
|
keyword is used. There are two different syntaxes:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
SCREENPALETTE <reg> <value>
|
|
SCREENPALETTE <reg> (red green blue)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
So you can either compose the color value using separate red,
|
|
green, blue components, or directly use a precalculated value. The
|
|
red/green/blue values can only be in the range 0-3.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
These are the original palette values:
|
|
</p>
|
|

|
|
SCREENPALETTE 1 (0 0 2)

SEARCHFOR ["]<string|string|..>["]
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Defines a set of search strings, separated by the '|' character.
|
|
The search set defined here is the default when using the Alt-F/Z
|
|
search functions or the marking system.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The '|' character works like an OR operator. That is, the search
|
|
is successful if one OR more of the strings are matched. The '&'
|
|
character is used as the logical AND operator.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Please refer to appropriate section in user's guide for more
|
|
information.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Older versions used the ';' semicolon character as a separator,
|
|
but that conflicts with the config reader which treats the
|
|
semicolon in a special way. The semicolon is still accepted as
|
|
separator char like '|', but if semicolons are used, you MUST
|
|
enclose the search strings with quotes or the config reader will
|
|
treat the first semicolon as the start of a comment.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Examples:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
SEARCHFOR string1
|
|
SEARCHFOR string1|string2|stringx
|
|
SEARCHFOR "string1;string2;stringx"

SEMAPHORE <type> <file>

|

<p>
|
|
This keyword defines "semaphore" files, for use with other mailer
|
|
and/or mail processing software.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <type> can be one of the following:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
NETSCAN Empty netmail scan file (for D'Bridge/FD).
|
|
ECHOSCAN Empty echomail scan file (for D'Bridge).
|
|
EXPORTLIST Echoid-list of your new messages.
|
|
IMPORTLIST Echoid-list of new imported messages.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The semaphore files are placed in the AREAPATH, if no path is
|
|
specified.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
See the example .CFG files for typical semaphore filenames.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
NOTE: You should not set SEMAPHORE EXPORTLIST to
|
|
%JAMPATH%\ECHOMAIL.JAM. This is incorrect and probably may cause
|
|
your mail processor to malfunction. Use the JAMPATH keyword
|
|
instead.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name>GoldED+</name> can handle enviroment variables correctly in paths
|
|
specified in connection with this keyword. For example, if a path
|
|
is defined as %MAIL%\path\name, and SET MAIL=C:\POINT is in
|
|
AUTOEXEC.BAT (or whatever), then <name>GoldED+</name> translates the path to
|
|
C:\POINT\path\name.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
NOTE: The translation is done at config compile time, so if you
|
|
change the environment variable and haven't changed anything else
|
|
that would cause <name>GoldED+</name> to recompile it's config, you must force
|
|
it with the -F or -FF command parameter.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In addition, <name>GoldED+</name> itself can watch for some semaphore files and
|
|
execute the appropiate function if it is in the arealist screen.
|
|
This can be useful if you have a multitasking system and you want
|
|
to "tell" <name>GoldED+</name> that there is new mail in some areas and <name>GoldED+</name>
|
|
should update its display correctly.

|

IDLETIME <seconds> Number of seconds between checks

</p>
|

<p>
|
|
If SEMAPHORE IDLETIME is defined and non-zero, then <name>GoldED+</name> will
|
|
check this list of semaphore files when the user has not pressed a
|
|
key in the specified number of seconds. The semaphores are only
|
|
checked when the arealist screen is active. If a semaphore file is
|
|
found, the file is deleted and then the action is performed. If no
|
|
path is given for the files, the GOLDPATH is assumed.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Example:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
SEMAPHORE SCANALL SCANALL.NOW
|
|
SEMAPHORE IDLETIME 30
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This causes <name>GoldED+</name> to check every 30 seconds for the SCANALL.NOW
|
|
file in the GOLDPATH, and scan all areas if it's found.

If enabled, then in Squish areas, if the DIR (direct) attribute is

According to the Squish Developers Kit, this is the way to tell

SquishMail that a message should be routed direct, because
|

SquishMail does not recognize the FLAGS kludge where the DIR
|
|
attribute is normally found. This keyword should probably only be

used with SquishMail (the mail processor) and then only when used

Specfies whether to use a quick scanning method which only looks

|
in the .SQI files. This will normally work fine, but may fail
|
|
slightly in obscure cases, especially when used with Squish 1.0x
|
|
or programs using the old version of the MSGAPI. If you suspect
|
|
problems, try to set this keyword to "api", which tells <name>GoldED+</name> to
|
|
look in the .SQD file for an exact count of active msgs in the
|
|
.SQI file.
|
|
</p>

|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If used, this disables the use of USER.BBS to find the index
|
|
number, and will in effect also stop <name>GoldED+</name> from creating USER.BBS
|
|
or any new entries in it (useful in a single-user point system).
|

If a Squish msgbase is shared between several users, and you don't

want to have a USER.BBS (recommended in such a case), each user

must have a unique SQUISHUSERNO in their GOLDED/GOLDAREA.CFG.

<p>
|

This keyword defines the path where <name>GoldED+</name> can find and use/create
|
|
your USER.BBS file, which is used in connection with the Squish
|
|
area lastreads. You can also specify the exact filename if not
|
|
USER.BBS.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If this path or filename is not defined, <name>GoldED+</name> will instead take
|
|
the one specified with AREAFILE Squish or AREAFILE Maximus
|
|
(whichever comes first), or failing that, use the MAXIMUS or
|
|
SQUISH environment variables. If even that fails, the AREAPATH or
|
|
GOLDPATH is used. If AREAFILE Maximus is used, <name>GoldED+</name> gets the
|
|
filename from MAX.PRM.

</p>
|

<p>
|
|
If enabled (yes or hide), <name>GoldED+</name> will highlight text surrounded by
|
|
one of the following characters in a different color: '*' for bold
|
|
text, '/' for italic text, '_' for underlined text and '#' for
|
|
reversed text. These are commonly used "stylecodes" which add
|
|
emphasis to the text, without making it harder to read. Examples:
|
|
*This* will be shown in bold color, /this/ in italic color and
|
|
_this_ in underlined color. It is also possible to combine styles,
|
|
such as */this/*, in bolditalic color.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The differ in yes and hide is that hide strips surrounding

stylecodes.

Described values are specific to -asa. Official vesions starting

at 3.00beta3 has bug in implementation which causes GoldEd to

ignore this keyword. Realization of this keyword in -asa versions
|

compatible with official versions prior to 3.00beta3.

To define the highlight colors, use COLOR STYLECODE. See the color

The STYLECODEPUNCT keyword specifies all the characters that
|
|
punctuates words. The stylecode line parser scans forward until it
|
|
meets one of these characters and then looks back to see if it
|
|
found a word with stylecodes around it.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The STYLECODESTOPS keyword specifies characters which, if found
|
|
within the word to be highlighted, causes the highlight to be
|
|
cancelled.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
These keywords were added to allow users to experiment with the
|
|
characters for punctuation and stop for stylecode sequences. This
|
|
is mostly to illustrate the point that it is almost impossible to
|
|
make stylecodes work in every case you want without getting a lot
|
|
of false highlights too. Please keep in mind that stylecodes are,
|
|
and always will be, a primitive and very error-prone method for
|
|
adding highlights to message text. The defaults are:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
STYLECODEPUNCT <q>!\"$%&()+,.:;<=>@[\]^`{|}~</q>
|
|
STYLECODESTOPS <q></q>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that the double-quote (") must have the backslash (\) in
|
|
front of it - the sequence (\") is translated to a single (").

TEMPLATE <file> ["desc"] [match-address]
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
(GOLDED.TPL)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can define many different template files. The templates can be
|
|
switched using the READchangetemplate (Ctrl-T) popup menu or the
|
|
EDITMENU.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The optional "desc" can be used to give the templates more
|
|
meaningful names like "International template" instead of
|
|
non-obvious names like "GOLDED.TPL". If a description is used, it
|
|
must appear before the match-address. It must always be enclosed
|
|
in quotes, even if it is only one word.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The match-address is an address mask (wildcards allowed) which can
|
|
be used to tell <name>GoldED+</name> to select that template if the destination
|
|
address on a message you write matches the match-address. The
|
|
matching will only take place if the TEMPLATEMATCH keyword has
|
|
been enabled.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This keyword can be used globally and in a Random System group. In
|
|
Random System groups, only the <file> parameter can be used.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Templates defined in Random System groups always override the
|
|
globally defined templates, except when selected from the EDITMENU
|
|
or when automatic template matching is in effect.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
To override the automatic template matching, start by selecting a
|
|
template manually using the READchangetemplate (Ctrl-T) command or
|
|
the EDITMENU.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Currently only one match-address per template can be specified,
|
|
but you can specify several TEMPLATE keywords for the same file.
|
|
</p>
|
|

This path should *NOT* point to a RAM disk or other volatile

|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
GoldNODE uses this path to store a temporary file which can become
|
|
as large as the largest index file (GOLDNODE.GXN), so again, don't
|
|
point it to a small RAM disk. If GoldNODE cannot find a TEMPPATH,

it will use the NODEPATH instead.

preserved. When doing a normal reply (Alt-Q or Alt-R) to a message
|
|
with the FWD kludges, <name>GoldED+</name> replies to the forwarder. To reply to
|
|
the from-name in the forwarded message, use the comment-reply
|
|
function (Alt-G). If the message contains the FWDAREA kludge, you
|
|
can reply to the forwarder in the original area (Alt-N) or reply
|
|
to the from-name in the original area (Alt-B). Note that it is not
|
|
possible to reply to the to-name of a message with the FWD
|
|
kludges, and it is also not possible to reply to the to-name of
|
|
the forwarded message (the FWDTO name).

In addition to normal nodelist support, <name>GoldED+</name> also supports the

"FIDOUSER.LST" style userlist format. The default zone is defined

by the first ADDRESS or AKA, but can be overridden by adding the
|
|
zone number or a full address after the filename.

<name>GoldED+</name> can generate a list of all users in the current area. This

You can define many different names/aliases. When <name>GoldED+</name> finds an
|
|
un-received message to one of your USERNAME's, it is marked as
|
|
received. Useful if you use alias names in some conferences. It is
|
|
possible to change the current name using the READchangeusername
|
|
popup menu.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
For msgbase formats with an associated user database, <name>GoldED+</name> uses
|
|
the *first* defined USERNAME to look in the user database for
|
|
which lastread record to use. If your name is not found, it is
|
|
added and a new lastread record created.

in DOS you should set environment variable TZ to something

like this:
|
|
</p>
|

<p>
|
|
TZ=MSK-3MSD,M3.5.0/02:00,M10.5.0/03:00

Hidden lines are "unknown" kludge lines. If enabled, hidden lines
|
|
will be displayed (in a different color) when reading msgs.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A hidden line is defined as a line which has the FidoNet kludge
|
|
char (^a, ASCII 1) as the first char and is not on the list of
|
|
internally or user defined known kludges.
|

</p>
|

<p>
|
|
This keyword can be used globally and in a Random System group.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
IMPORTANT NOTE:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In some conferences the hidden lines are used to give witty
|
|
comment "between the lines" in the plain text, but generally it is
|
|
considered a bad practice and should be avoided because it may
|
|
cause severe technical problems if a witty comment in a hidden
|
|
line happens to match a (perhaps experimentally) defined kludge
|
|
somewhere. It should also be noted that hidden lines are not kept
|
|
in their original places when used in the JAM msgbase. This is due
|
|
to the way the JAM specification stores FidoNet kludges.

|

<p>
|
|
This is an experimental feature. It is similar to the VIEWHIDDEN
|
|
and VIEWKLUDGE keywords, but for quoted text. I implemented it
|
|
because I was annoyed with the excessive quoting often seen in
|
|
Internet newsgroups. When this keyword is set to NO, <name>GoldED+</name>
|
|
attempts to trim down the quotes so that only the first line of
|
|
each quote block is shown. It is not always successful, sometimes
|
|
the result is not so useful.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A key command has been added to supplement this feature:
|
|
READtogglequote. Suggested key assignment: Ctrl-V. Example:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
^V READtogglequote
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Try it out if you are annoyed with excessive quotes.

Obsolete Keywords
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This is a list of keywords which were used in various older versions.
|
|
These keywords are now obsolete, either because they have been renamed
|
|
or replaced, or if they no longer have any function. Most of the
|
|
keywords are still active and remapped to the new names.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
To check if you have obsolete keywords in your setup, run <name>GoldED+</name> with
|
|
the -F -D commandline parameters. Then if you get a number of "Unknown
|
|
keyword" warnings, you should replace the old keywords with the new
|
|
ones or remove them.

<div1 id=AREACONFIGURATION><head>Area Configuration</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
GoldED offers a wide variety of methods for defining message areas.
|
|
You can define each area manually in the GOLDED.CFG file (or an
|
|
INCLUDE'ed GOLDAREA.CFG file), or you can tell <name>GoldED+</name> to read the area
|
|
setup files of many popular BBS/mailer/mail processor packages.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
For manual definition of areas, use the AREA or AREADEF (recommened)
|
|
keywords.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
For external area configuration, the general syntax for the AREAFILE
|
|
keyword is:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
AREAFILE <programname> [path or filename(s)] [-options]
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Available options:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
-S<sortspec>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you are *not* using the global AREALISTSORT keyword for sorting
|
|
all the areas, you can sort the areas of each AREAFILE separately.
|
|
See the AREALISTSORT keyword for the definition of <sortspec>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If no path is specified, the appropriate environment variable or the
|
|
AREAPATH is used to find the files.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <programname> can be one of the following:

AreasBBS
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<name>GoldED+</name> is can handle a wide variety of AREAS.BBS type files. It
|
|
can read and distinguish between the old CONFMAIL style with paths
|
|
for *.MSG areas, the Hudson/Goldbase style with board numbers, the
|
|
Squish style with "$basename" and the JAM style with "!basename".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The disadvantage of using an AREAS.BBS is that there are no area
|
|
descriptions. The echoid is used as description instead. However,
|
|
<name>GoldED+</name> will use any text behind a semicolon on definition lines as
|
|
description. This may or may not be compatible with mail
|
|
processors, so be careful. A better solution may be to use the
|
|
AREAFILE Echolist to add descriptions from a separate file.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
One or more AREAS.BBS files may be specified on the same line.

<div1 id=RANDOMSYSTEM><head>The Random System</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
With the Random System, you can define area-specific sets of origins,
|
|
tearlines, templates, usernames and many other items. If
|
|
more than one item of each type is specified, a random one is picked -
|
|
a Random System. This is a very useful feature when (for example)
|
|
participating in conferences with different languages.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Random System is built on the idea of "groups". A group is a
|
|
collection of "items", belonging to the group. You can assign one or
|
|
more echomail areas, designated by their echoid's to a group. Groups
|
|
can also be specified for just a single echo, and DOS/4DOS-style
|
|
wildcards can be used to simplify the assignment of echoes with common
|
|
strings in their name, such as *.DK, SIG.* and so on. In this way, you
|
|
could for example setup one group for all national echoes, another for
|
|
special local echoes, a third for international echoes etc.

GROUP <id>[:]

[Member <id list>]

ENDGROUP
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Group <id> can be one of three things:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
1. A group letter or #number, matching the group letters or numbers
|
|
used in the AREAFILE's of D'Bridge, GEcho, IMAIL, TosScan and many
|
|
others. To use this feature, you need to enable the AREAFILEGROUPS
|
|
keyword.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
2. An individual echoid or echoid mask (wildcards can be used). The
|
|
items are then simply defined below the Group line.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
3. A group label, terminated by a colon (:). The group items are
|
|
defined below the Group line. Echoes are assigned to the group by
|
|
adding one or more Member statements.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can't assign a group to another group. It will not harm, but it
|
|
also won't work :-)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The order of groups is very important. <name>GoldED+</name> scans the groups from
|
|
the top down. This means that the most general groups must be placed
|
|
at the bottom and exceptions (individual areas for example) must be
|
|
placed at the top.

Defining Random Items
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The random items are defined much like in the main <name>GoldED+</name>
|
|
configuration file.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If more than one of each item is defined within a group, those items
|
|
will be picked randomly (hence the name "Random System"), while <name>GoldED+</name>
|
|
collects items when entering an area.
|

Random System Example
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Below is an example of how a Random System could be setup. Note how
|
|
the letter group 'D' goes first, followed by the explicit group
|
|
definitions for the NERDS and FOO echoes. Then comes the more general
|
|
groups (those with Label:'s), where the echoes are assigned with one
|
|
or more Member statements. At last there is the catch-all "Group *",
|
|
which works as the default group.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
=== Cut, GOLDRAND.CFG ===
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|

|
|

Color Configuration
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Color configuration in <name>GoldED+</name> is a bit complicated, and you probably
|
|
have to experiment quite a bit, if you want make your own setup. For
|
|
your convenience, I have added a number of example color setups,
|
|
provided by some of my many good users. I suggest you try them all and
|
|
use the one that suits you best, perhaps tuning it a bit to your
|
|
taste.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The COLOR keyword uses the following syntax:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div2>
|
|
<head>
|
|
COLOR <window> <part> <colors>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<window> AREA, ASK, BACKGROUND, BRAG, HEADER, HELP, INFO, MENU,
|
|
READER, SHADOW, STATUS.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<part> BLOCK, BORDER, BTYPE, EDIT, HIDDEN, HIGHLIGHT, INPUT,
|
|
KLUDGE, NOSELECT, ORIGIN, QUOTE, SELECTOR, TEARLINE,
|
|
TITLE, WINDOW.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <colors> are composed of [blinking] <ink> [on <paper>].
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<ink> Black, Blue, Green, Cyan, Red, Magenta, Brown, LGrey,
|
|
DGrey, LBlue, LGreen, LCyan, LRed, LMagenta, Yellow,
|
|
White.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<paper> Black, Blue, Green, Cyan, Red, Magenta, Brown, LGrey.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
For monochrome setups we instead have:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<ink> Normal, Highlight, Reverse, Underline.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The SHADOW color does not need a <part>, because it is global.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The paper color always defaults to Black if not specified.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If <part> is "BTYPE", the <color> is a value in the range 0-3, which
|
|
defines the type of lines used when drawing menus and windows:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
BTYPE 0 is single horizontal and single vertical lines.
|
|
BTYPE 1 is double horizontal and double vertical lines.
|
|
BTYPE 2 is single horizontal and double vertical lines.
|
|
BTYPE 3 is double horizontal and single vertical lines.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The default border type is always BTYPE 0.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|

|
|
AREA, READER and MENU. Note that BORDER will set both the BORDER and
|

The Message Template
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The message template gives you a ready-made skeleton for writing your
|
|
messages in the editor. The template is one of <name>GoldED+</name>'s many strong
|
|
features. With this, you can eliminate the tedious typing of greetings
|
|
etc etc. <name>GoldED+</name> also provides a number of replacement strings,
|
|
"tokens", to dynamically add message specific information to the
|
|
template.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
As in the configuration file, a semicolon (;) first on the line makes
|
|
the line a comment. Any other line is put into the editor file, after
|
|
token expansion. Tokens are not case sensitive.
|
|
</p>

|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Tokens dealing with names may optionally have two parameters (each
|
|
parameter enclosed in curve brackets): your name and opponent name,
|
|
destination name additionally accepts third parameter - WhoTo name.
|
|
Here is example on how this feature could be used:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
@oname{I}{You} wrote to @dname{me}{you}{everyone}:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The template text begins at the first non-comment line.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
See the included GOLDED.TPL for example usage.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you need to put some text which contains one of these tokens into a
|
|
template file, use an extra '@' in front of the token.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Example:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Internet: somebody@veryhot.com
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
would produce
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Internet: somebody2.51yhot.com (because @ver is a token)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
so write it like this instead:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Internet: somebody@@veryhot.com
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The double '@' will then be translated to a single, and token
|
|
translation skips past the @token.
|
|

The Online Help System
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
GoldED has a built-in context sensitive help system, tied to the <F1>
|
|
key (one of the very few keys that cannot be reconfigured). It
|
|
contains a complete keyboard reference and help for most situations.
|
|
It is current not as complete or sophisticated as I'd like it myself,
|
|
but this may be improved in future versions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can completely redefine the help screens if you wish - the
|
|
GOLDHELP.CFG file is a plain ASCII text file which contains all help
|
|
definitions. The help file is split into several help categories. Here
|
|
is an example of a couple of defined help categories:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
*B 1,Help Category 1
|
|
help text help text help text
|
|
help text help text help text
|
|
*P
|
|
help text help text help text
|
|
help text help text help text
|
|
*E
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
*B 2,Help Category 2
|
|
help text help text help text
|
|
help text help text help text
|
|
*P
|
|
help text help text help text
|
|
help text help text help text
|
|
See also: ^Help Category 1^
|
|
*E
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The "*B" indicator specifies the beginning of a help category. The
|
|
format is "*B helpcatnumber[,helpcatname]". In <name>GoldED+</name> the help
|
|
categories are numbered 1000-9999, split into more or less logical
|
|
groups. See the help file for assignments. There should be only one
|
|
space between the "*B" and the help category number. The help category
|
|
name is only required for cross-references. If there are no
|
|
cross-references to that help category, then you can leave the
|
|
helpcatname parameter out.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The "*P" indicator specifies a page break and is optional. You may
|
|
have as many page breaks as you'd like. The "*E" indicator specifies
|
|
the end of the help category. The "*B", "*P", and "*E" indicators must
|
|
all begin in the first column. These indicators and the help category
|
|
name are case insensitive (can be in lowercase, uppercase, or mixed).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the definition of Help Category 2, you will notice the
|
|
crossreference to Help Category 1. All cross-referencing is done by
|
|
embedding the cross- reference category name (not number) inside
|
|
carats (^). If you need to display a carat inside the help file, use a
|
|
double carat (^^).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Any text contained outside of the "*B" and "*E" is treated as
|
|
comments. If an "*E" is not found, then the end-of-file will be
|
|
treated as an "*E".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Not all of the help categories in this help file are actually used in
|
|
the current version of <name>GoldED+</name>. The ones not used are empty, except for
|
|
a two-line "header".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The usable dimensions of the help window are 60 columns by 16 lines.
|
|
In the help file there is a model of the actual window.
|

Character Translation
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
GoldED implements several different proposals for character
|
|
translation in imported and exported messages:

FSC-0054 "CHARSET proposal"

No FSC "Composed Characters"
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
by Andre van de Wijdeven.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
FSC-0050 is currently known to be implemented in the OPMED 3.xx
|
|
message editor, and in Opus 1.7x. It uses the same identifier as
|
|
FSC-0054 (a ^aCHARSET kludge), but is a lot simpler (but not
|
|
necessarily better).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The "I51" and "CHARSET" proposals are in the process of being merged
|
|
to one proposal, which should combine the advantages of both. They are
|
|
both based on using the LATIN-1 (also known as ISO 8859-1) character
|
|
set for extended ASCII. The LATIN-1 set is the same set used by
|
|
Windows 3.xx, Amiga and many other non-PC computers. In addition to
|
|
LATIN-1, I51 defines a set of so-called escape sequences for
|
|
characters not found in the LATIN-1 set.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
"Composed Characters" became quite popular in Holland, but the author
|
|
decided to drop his proposal because it relied on escape sequences
|
|
using the so called "soft-cr" (141d, 8Dh) character. <name>GoldED+</name> will
|
|
continue to support Composed as long as it seems necessary.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you want to know more about the details, I suggest you read the
|
|
proposals or contact the authors.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
GoldED currently supports two types of translation tables, the *.ESC
|
|
files and the *.CHS files.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</div2>
|
|
<div2>
|
|
<head>
|
|
The ESC translation tables
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The *.ESC files are used for import translation of the escape
|
|
sequences defined in I51 and Composed Characters.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the ESC files, the semicolon is used for comments. The *first*
|
|
non-comment line defines the charset the escape code are mapped TO.
|
|
This is normally IBMPC, and should not be changed. Any other
|
|
non-comment line is treated as an escape sequence definition with this
|
|
syntax:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<esc1><esc2><space><map chars>[; comment/description]
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Leading spaces are *not* allowed in ESC files. <esc1> and <esc2> are
|
|
the two characters that define the escape sequence. <space> is ignored
|
|
and can be used to make the table look better. <map chars> defines the
|
|
local representation of the escape sequence, up to three characters.
|
|
Normally you would only map to one extended ascii character. The map
|
|
chars can be either the characters themselves, or decimal or
|
|
hexadecimal numbers of the form "\d<dec>" or "\x<hex>" (like in the C
|
|
programming language).
|
|
</p>
|
|
</div2>
|
|
<div2>
|
|
<head>
|
|
The CHS translation tables
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The *.CHS files are used for import and export translation of the
|
|
CHARSET type character sets, and export of I51 and Composed escape
|
|
sequences.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The CHS files uses the format of the raw text files provided in the
|
|
CHARSET3.ZIP example implementation of FSC-0054. Study some of the
|
|
files provided if you want to know how to define them.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The two keywords XLATESCSET and XLATCHARSET are used to define which
|
|
files belong to what import and export set. You can define more than
|
|
one import and export set for each file.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The keyword XLATIMPORT defines which charset you have on your own
|
|
machine - this would normally be "IBMPC". It can be useful to change
|
|
this (using the Random System) in areas where another character set
|
|
than IBMPC is the dominant (like Amiga or MacIntosh, whatever).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The keyword XLATEXPORT defines the charset your messages should be
|
|
exported to, if any.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Confused? Yeah, I know - this is a confusing subject, and my
|
|
implementation and documentation is not perfect. Normally you will not
|
|
have to worry about it. Turn it off completely if you don't understand
|
|
it.

Keyboard Command Reference
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Most of the <name>GoldED+</name> keyboard commands can be reached with just one
|
|
keystroke. To ease operation for experienced users of other message
|
|
editors, <name>GoldED+</name> comes with several sets of keys for each of the
|
|
keyboard commands - direct non-shifted keys, Alt/Ctrl-keys and
|
|
function keys. Many of these key assignments will be familiar for
|
|
users of Msged, Msged/Q, ME2 and FM.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The following is a list of all keyboard commands, sorted by type and
|
|
alphabetically, using the format
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<command> <short description>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This list is also available in the context-sensitive help system on
|
|
the <F1> key.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
It is possible to almost completely redefine the keyboard - this in
|
|
done in the GOLDKEYS.CFG file, which also handles macro definition
|
|
(see later).

<div1 id=MACROSANDKEYSTACKING><head>Macros and Keystacking</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
GoldED has a simple keyboard macro facility, which you can use to
|
|
automate certain common operations. In addition, a "keystacking"
|
|
facility allows you to create simple automatic macros on the fly.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The macro definition syntax is modelled after the syntax used in the
|
|
QEdit text editor:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<assignment-key> Macro <commands or keys>
|
|
<assignment-key> AreaMacro <commands or keys>
|
|
<assignment-key> EditMacro <commands or keys>
|
|
<assignment-key> FileMacro <commands or keys>
|
|
<assignment-key> ListMacro <commands or keys>
|
|
<assignment-key> NodeMacro <commands or keys>
|
|
<assignment-key> ReadMacro <commands or keys>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Macros are defined in the GOLDKEYS.CFG file, where you can also find
|
|
several examples.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
By using the word "Auto" as <assignment-key>, you can even define a
|
|
special macro which will be automatically executed when you start
|
|
GoldED.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Keystacking is a special form of auto-macros. You simply specify a
|
|
bunch of keys to be "stacked" in the (special internal) keyboard
|
|
buffer for sequential execution.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can either specify a default set of keystacking in the .CFG
|
|
configuration file, or override any default keystacking by typing the
|
|
keystack definitions at the <name>GoldED+</name> commandline or the GEDCMD
|
|
environment variable.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
See the Key Reference chapter for a list of the key symbols you can
|
|
use in macros and keystacking.

Note that some of the Alt-keys, especially the cursor-related keys and

the F11/F12 keys, are "extended" keys normally only available on
|
|
systems with an extended keyboard bios. However, <name>GoldED+</name> uses a few
|
|
tricks to make some the extended keys available on non-extended
|
|
systems.

Language Definition
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
GoldED allows you to almost completely redefine the language dependent
|
|
text in the program.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The language dependent text in <name>GoldED+</name> is defined in the plain ASCII
|
|
text GOLDLANG.CFG file.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
See the example language file for the actual method and format of
|
|
language redefinition.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you are planning to translate the text in <name>GoldED+</name>, you should also
|
|
look into the definition of the help screens.
|

Date/Time Substitution Codes
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A few of the language texts can contain special date/time substitution
|
|
codes. The keywords for those are: MS_DateTimeFmt, MS_DateFmt,
|
|
MS_TimeFmt and ST_StatuslineTimeFmt.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Here are the valid substitution codes:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
%a Abbreviated weekday name (Mon, Tue, Wed, ...).
|
|
%A Full weekday name (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, ...).
|
|
%b Abbreviated month name (Jan, Feb, Mar, ...).
|
|
%B Full month name (January, February, March, ...).
|
|
%d Day of month (01-31).
|
|
%e Day of month, with leading space for single digits (1-31).
|
|
%E Day of month (1-31).
|
|
%H Hour (00-23) (24-hour clock).
|
|
%I Hour (01-12) (12-hour clock).
|
|
%j Day of the year (001-366).
|
|
%m Month (01-12).
|
|
%M Minute (00-59).
|
|
%p AM or PM according to 12-hour clock.
|
|
%S Second (00-59).
|
|
%U Week number (00-52) where sunday is first day of the week.
|
|
%w Weekday (0-6) where 0 is sunday.
|
|
%W Week number (01-53) where monday is first day of the week.
|
|
%y Year without century (00-99).
|
|
%Y Year with century.
|
|
%% Character '%'.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The %a, %A, %b and %B codes substitute to the current language setup
|
|
loaded using the LOADLANGUAGE keyword.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
*** NOTE ***
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the continuing development of <name>GoldED+</name>, it is impossible to
|
|
completely maintain backward compatibility of the language format or
|
|
the text defined there. New features may add and/or obsolete some
|
|
definitions, or may change the format of others.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The existing language file may contain definitions which are already
|
|
obsolete, but which I haven't had time to search for and remove, as
|
|
well as there may be some texts in <name>GoldED+</name> which are not yet definable.
|
|
All this will of course be corrected in future versions. If you find
|
|
inconsistencies, please report them, because I may have overlooked
|
|
them.

Message Kludge Lines
|
|
</head>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Kludge lines are special control lines, that begin with a ^a (ASCII 1)
|
|
as the first character of the line, followed by a unique identifying
|
|
name and the relevant control information.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
GoldED is aware of a lot of these kludges, and supports a number of
|
|
them, if you want to have them inserted in your messages.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Some kludges are useless junk and more or less commercials for this
|
|
and that software, but a few are useful for miscellaneous purposes. In
|
|
the following, I will list (some of) the known and supported kludges,
|
|
and a short description of what they are used for.

This is not really a kludge, and it doesn't begin with a ^a, but I

included it on the kludge list because it sometimes turned up in

echomail areas where it should have been stripped off by the mail
|

tosser.

This kludge was probably born in Russia because of some software was

|
not able to properly handle non-<abbr>ASCII</abbr> characters in

the header lines. Name should be written in national codepage.

Otherwise I don't see any reason for this kludge. I don't know any

software that generate this kludge.
