The message template gives you a ready-made skeleton for writing
your messages in the editor. The template is one of GoldED's
strong features. With this, you can eliminate the tedious typing
of greetings etc etc. GoldED also provides a number of replacement
strings, "tokens", to dynamically add message specific information
to the template.
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.
The following is a list of the tokens available:
Conditional tokens: (replaced by a null string)
-----------------------------------------------
@Changed Line is only inserted in Changed msgs (from others).
@Comment Line is only inserted in Reply-Comments.
@Echo Line is only inserted in Echomail.
@Forward Line is only inserted in Forwarded messages.
@Local Line is only inserted in Local messages.
@Moved Line is only inserted in Reply-Moved messages.
@Net Line is only inserted in Netmail.
@New Line is only inserted in New messages (not replies).
@Position Specifies the starting line for the editor cursor.
@Quoted Line is only inserted in Quoted replies.
@Reply Line is only inserted in Non-Quoted Replies.
Insert tokens: (anything else on the line is ignored)

@Attrib <attributes> - Adds specific message attributes.
@Message Inserts the original message (in Forward and Change).
@Quote Inserts a quote of the original message.
@Random [random.txt [random.idx]] - Inserts random text.
