% | configuration file for Ghostwriter 2.2 and newer |
% +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
%
% This file will be processed sequentially. Lines with ; or % in column 1
% are treated as comment lines. Everything following the ; or % character
% also is treated as comment and ignored.
%
% Without exception all keywords and user names are case insensitive.
% User names always will be converted to "Firstname Lastname", no matter
% if "firstname lastname", "FIRSTNAME LASTNAME", "fIRSTNAME LASTname"
% or any other combination was entered.
% Message text lines will always be used as found in this file.
%
% Path names need not to end with a backslash \ character.
% If a drive specification in a path name is missing
% the currently logged drive will be used by default.
%
% DOS environment variables may be used in any configuration or
% message text line of this file. Use this %method% to write strings
% which should be taken from the DOS environment. If the variable
% %junk% is not set, %junk% will be kept without changes.
%
% To include for example the strings %temp% or $year in the message text
% use %%temp% and $$year. This makes %%temp% appear as %temp% and $$year
% appear as $year.
%
% To use the string %Subject% as tag line/message subject
% take care to write %Subject% *not* starting at column 1
% in this file.
%
% Currently there are five "built-in" tags which may not be used
% as tags in this configuration file:
%
% Hello! is used to do a check if all required parameters
% are found and identified correctly by the program.
% This only can be done if Binkley.Cfg, Fd.Sys or
% Config.Ra is in the same subdirectory as Ghost.Exe
% or can be located by the BINKLEY, FD or RA environment
% variables respectively.
%
% History creates a detailed overview for the outbound and inbound
% mail history. This tag is available *only* in FrontDoor
% environments; make sure Inbound.His and Outbound.His
% are located in FrontDoor's "system" directory.
%
% Report is used to do a check for new echomail messages
% addressed to the sysop. A table containing the
% numbers and names of the installed echomail boards,
% eventually unreceived messages and the total number
% of messages in each board will be sent as message
% to the sysop in the netmail folder.
% If "-dFilename.Ext" or "-dDevice" is included on
% the command line this table will be written to
% "Filename.Ext" or sent to "Device" instead of
% being written to a netmail message.
%
% CAUTION: This is only available in a QuickBBS
% echomail message base environment.
% Also a TosScan-like Areas.Bbs file
% must be present in the same subdirectory
% as the other Msg*.Bbs QuickBBS files.
% This Areas.Bbs file is not required in
% FrontDoor environments; the data will
% be taken from Folder.Sys in FrontDoor's
% system directory.
%
% Server is used to invoke the server function: the netmail
% directory will be scanned for messages addressed to
% the user name given on the "#define serveruser"
% matching the "Subject:" field with the password
% given on "#define serverpassword".
% If messages to this user are found they will be
% saved as batch files and executed immediately.
%
% Trigger invokes the "trigger" function: the netmail directory
% is searched for messages which "Subject:" fields match
% the subject for trigger items (see below: #define trigger).
% If any match is found the DOS command on the "command"
% line for the matching trigger "subject" will be executed.
% Afterwards the "received" flag for this message is set.

Hello, $name.
See your system's inbound subdirectory for Ghost220.Zip, version
2.2 of my "Ghostwriter" program. Among a lot of bug fixes and new features
the program has been modified to work with the new "address" statement
introduced by BinkleyTerm 2.40.
Feel free to distribute the program on SDS. If you plan to do so,
please contact Rudi Van Lishout, 2:512/26. Rudi is the first one to hatch
SDS files; please help avoiding file dupes and unneccessary phone costs
for you and other sysops.

Ghostwriter's future

Hello, $name.
To improve further development of my "Ghostwriter" I decided to split
the program into two versions: a BinkleyTerm-specific version supporting the
*.Msg message format and a FrontDoor-specific version supporting *.Msg in
the netmail folder and QuickBBS-format in echomail folders.
The BinkleyTerm-version will be maintained and expanded by Johannes
Mistelbauer, 2:310/30, who received the complete source from me. Please send
all BinkleyTerm-related bug reports, suggestions, wishes for modification
etc. to Johannes.
Currently I'm completely re-writing the FrontDoor-specific version
from scratch. I'm trying to decrease the program's size, to wipe out known
and hidden bugs and to expand the features. I'll use all goodies found in
FrontDoor 1.99c and all future FrontDoor versions.
Thanks for your attention,
Werner.

Ich habe heute nach 10 Versuchen, mich um 5.30 Uhr ans Keyboard
des Rechners zu holen, nicht geantwortet. Entweder habe ich verschlafen
oder die Nacht bei meiner Freundin verbracht. Unter Umständen bin ich
auch in einer Aufnahmestation der Wiener Unfallkrankenhäuser zu finden
oder ich fange schön langsam an, zu Hause zu vermodern.
Wenn es Dir möglich ist, versuche mich bitte unter 450 16 43/344 an
meinem Arbeitsplatz (Computer 2000) zu erreichen. Meine Freundin, Kornelia
Hochsteiner, erreichst Du unter 45 35 11/26 (Reproform) ab 14.00 Uhr.
Ein Anruf bei mir dürfte sinnlos sein, da wahrscheinlich noch das Modem
abhebt.
Vielen Dank für Deine Bemühungen.

This message is intended to be a test for new Ghostwriter features.
Have a look at the following variables: this should be the current day:
$day; the day's name is: "$dname"; now there are $diskfree kb free disk
space; the DOS version in use is $dosversion; the origin net of this
message is $fromnet, the origin node is $fromnode, the message was created
at point #$frompoint located in zone $fromzone. Currently there are $memory
kb free RAM in the $monthth month of this year. By the way: the name of the
month is "$mname".
Let's have a look at the current memory mapping:
$include %temp%mem.txt
Now let's check all magic filenames supported by the program:
$Anetlist, $Bbsnet, $Eggdiff, $Egglist, $Fidonews, $Netlist,
$Nodediff, $Nodelist, $Opcndiff, $Opcnlist, $Pointnet, $Sigdiff, $Sigecho,
$Signodes.
The name of the origin system is "$origin". This message is addressed
to $tozone:$tonet/$tonode.$topoint. Now it's $time, the year is $year. Finally
[to satisfy the wishes of some computer science students regarding "smart
parsing"...] this variable here --> $$year should *not* have been translated
into the current year.
The command line parameter entered was "$dummy".
Let's hope everything is ok.

Hello, $name.
Unfortunately the message you posted on $bouncedate in "$bouncearea"
to Werner has not been received by its addressee within the last
$bouncelimit days. Since usually all messages at least will be read or will
get a reply there must have been a serious reason for him to skip your
message.
Feel free to send your message again via FidoNet mail to Werner
Berghofer @ $fromzone:$fromnet/$fromnode.$frompoint or try to get in touch
in any other way you probably may know.
Very sorry.
Ghostwriter.

% | example #5: onday function |
% +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
%
% This function is very similar to "ondate":
% Start the program with "onday" as tag parameter.
% Include a tag (tag line, "to ...", "path ..." and text)
% in the configuration file.
%
% Valid day names are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,
% Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
%
% Everything from "onday <dayname>" to the next blank
% character will be ignored; the message "Subject:"
% will be the string immediately following the first
% blank character.
%
% Note: only the first matching tag will be used
% for message creation. If you need more tags
% for the same weekday use "-fotherconfig.file"
% as command line option to use the program
% with "otherconfig.file".

% on March 17th, 1990, the command "ghost ondate" will create

%
% Note: tough this will become an echomail message an address

Hello, FidoNet developers.
Finally, it has become reality: Opus 1.10 has been released by it's
authors. Let's all get up and request the specs describing the various data
structures used in the new version of Opus. Hope soon there will be a lot
of useful utilities supporting this extended version of a state-of-the-art
BBS program.
Many thanks to Wynn Wagner III for inventing Opus, to George
Stanislav, Vince Perriello, Doug Boone, Tom Kashuba and all the other
guys involved in the development of Opus 1.10.
Werner.

Hello, $name.
Please note: a new month just has started. The echomail reports
have been successfully generated, packed and are waiting for transmission
to your bossnode, 2:310/11.
By the way: take care for the usual duties required on the start
of a new month (pay the rent for the flat, buy a new ticket for the Vienna
public transports etc).
