- --------------------
-
- First of all, create a configuration file named MAIN.CFG. Each line
- of this file may consist of one of the following items:
-
- ;<remark>
-
- a remark which is not recognized at run-time. You should
- use it to comment your configuration file.
-
- <empty line>
-
- an empty line - nothing more
-
- keyword
-
- a keyword - for a complete list look at the end of this
- paragraph (or documentation? ;))
-
-

- ----------------
-
- [global]
- starts the global configuration part
-
- RAPath
- Path to the RemoteAccess configuration files. e.g.
- RAPath="C:\RA". A trailing backslash is optional.
-
- FEPath
- Path to FASTECHO.CFG. e.g. FEPATH="C:\RA\FASTECHO". A trailing
- backslash is optional.
-
- FEGroup
- Set to YES, if the FastEcho group definition should be used to
- create RemoteAccess groupdefinitions. If set to NO, no
- groupdefinitions will be created - you have to create them
- manually or create them in another setup-block (see below).
- E.g. FEGroup=Yes
-
- SortAreas
- If set to YES, the JAM-Areas defined in the FastEcho
- configuration will be sorted alphabetically. If set to NO, the
- JAM-Areas will be sorted as defined in FESetup. E.g.
- SortGroups=YES
-
- UseFEOrigin
- Set to YES, if the Originlines defined in FESetup should be
- transported into the RemmoteAcces setup. If set to NO, you have
- to create your own Origins or use another setup-block to do so
- (see below). E.g. UseFEOrigin=YES
-
-

-
- UseDescription
- If set to YES, FE to RA copies the description rather than the
- area-name in the RA message file.
-
- FEaka
- If set to YES, the AKA (also known as) information of FastEcho
- is used to configure RemoteAccess. If set to NO, the
- RemoteAccess MainAKA is used instead. E.g. FEaka=YES
-
- WriteSecurity
- ReadSecurity
- SysopSecurity
- These keywords define the different security options in the
- RemoteAccess setup. If you do not use these keywords, the values
- will be set to 0. E.g. WriteSecurity=2
-
- WriteFlags
- ReadFlags
- SysopFlags
- These keywords define the different flag options. If you use
- these keywords, you have to use the following format:
- <flagtype>=<bit7..bit0 of flag A>,<bit7..bit0 of flag B>,
- <bit7..bit0 of flag C>,<bit7..bit0 of flag D>
- e.g. ReadFlags=xx----x-,---o----,--------,--------
- where x means flag have to be set, o: flag must not be set and
- -: flag is insignificant
-
- MailType
- This keyword could be set to 4 different values:
- FastEcho: use the FastEcho type definition
- EchoMail: set to EchoMail
- NetMail : set to NetMail
- Local : set to LocalMail
- If this keyword is not used, FastEcho mailtype will be the
- standard value.
-
-

- following [global] commands (see above).
- SortAreas
- UseFEOrigin
- FEaka
- WriteSecurity
