    Hello everybody!

    What's the best way to point Golded to a Synchronet config setup?

    I do not believe you can, I have tried several times in the past and never came up with the answer. If you do please share.

    I had these options for Synchronet in the stock .CFG file. They worked for me. I tried all 3 and they worked.


    ;AREAFILE Synchronet c:\sbbs\ ; Synchronet BBS dir
    ;AREAFILE Synchronet c:\sbbs\ctrl\ ; Synchronet BBS config dir ;AREAFILE Synchronet c:\sbbs\ctrl\msgs.cnf ; Synchronet BBS config file

    Hola Rick!

    11 May 23 10:40, Richard Vonzel dijo a Rick Smith:

    ;AREAFILE Synchronet c:\sbbs\ ; Synchronet BBS dir

    AREAFILE synchronet /sbbs/

    I have only tested this in linux with version 3.17 (I think I remember) of synchronet and it worked for me.

    Just a head's up that Synchronet v3.20 (still under development) moved from .cnf (binary struct) configuration files to .ini files.

    Hello All.

    I trying to figure out how to have GoldED seperate my network groups for display. Fidonet, FSXnet, Dove-net I've tried AREASEP, but that didn't work. Can someone share there AREASEP, or another example of how to set that up?

    Thanks,
    Rick V

    You can't point directly to msgs.ini in this case. You would have to AREADEF every one of your Synchronet sub-boards manually..

    areasep !FIDONET "Fidonet" <group> echo
    areadef AFTERSHOCK "Aftershock Android Client Support" <group> echo SMB /path/to/sbbs/data/subs/aftershock <your node number>
    ... *all of them*

    areasep !FSXNET "FSXNet" <group> echo
    areadef FSX_GEN "General Chat + More" <group> echo SMB /path/to/sbbs/data/subs/fsx_gen <your node number>
    ... *all of them*

    areasep !DOVENET "Dove-net" <group> local
    areadef DOVE-GEN "General" <group> local SMB /path/to/sbbs/data/subs/dove-gen ... *all of them*

    Some of those lines might wrap on your current display, but everything including "areadef" and after, and before "..." is on one line.

    Nick

    I didn't realize yhat was a thing. I guess that's what I get for not
    reading the manual, isn't it? XD

    Thanks for that info.
