Registry
Open the registry by running the regedit.exe program.
You can find the registry settings of Quotes in 'HKEY_CURRENT_USERS/SOFTWARE/QUOTES'.
Change signature and exit Quotes
It is possible to configure Quotes to run, change the signatures
and quit by setting the '
QuickRun' property in the registry to the value true.
If the property 'QuickShow' if set to true than QuickRun will
not only change your signature but will also show a Quote on
screen.
Choose Quotes data file
To choose multiple Quotes data files you have to reopen the data
file menu yourself a couple of times. This can be done
automatically by setting the value 'ShowDataFilesAgain' in the
registry to true.
Random versus sequential
By default Quotes searches a Quote in the selected Quotes
datafile randomly. Quotes can also search statically and sequentially.
The registry property 'Order' can contain the values
'Random', 'Sequential' and 'Static'. When you choose Sequential
or Static the registry property 'Position' keeps track of the
position in the active Quote file that contains the active
Quote, where in the sequential scenario this property is
automatically raised on every change.
Name of author on separate line
The Quotes data files contain Quotes in ASCII format. For
every Quote a separate line is used (separated by carriage
return). If you want to put the name of the author of the Quote
on a separate line you have to use this tag: '<RET>'.
Example Quote datafile":
Quote1<RET>Author1
Quote2<RET>Author 2
