; Configuration Guide list by Function and Importance
;====================================================
; There are 177 keywords that can be used by Bink so it is unwise to copy
; someone else's config! You will end up with Keywords *YOU* don't need.
;
; If you must, copy just the modem initialisation strings, providing the
; other user has exactly the same type of modem.
;
; Each keyword, or "statement", is fully described in the Reference Manual.
;
; Where parameters are needed, replace the description with the correct
; parameter. Note: <required parameter> [optional parameter].
;
;  Hint: Test the configuration for a new installation by first running
;  with only the keywords shown below as "essential" in place. There is
;  then less to troubleshoot!
;
; Keywords which are in use *must* start in the first column of each line.
;
; The relative importance of each keyword is shown by the number of
; semicolons at the start of the line:
;
; Note: Essential keywords are shown with no preceding semicolon
;
;       This is a comment
;;      Not essential, but found useful in many setups
;;;     May be needed or may provide an extra facility
;;;;    Most systems do NOT require this keyword
;;;;;   Obsolete or test keyword.  Do NOT use in new installations
