- ############ Fetch-O-Matic Settings File #############
- #
- #A pound sign (#) begins every comment line such as this one (all such
- #lines are ignored when this file is accessed). There are two columns of data
- #in each of various sections below. Rewrite column 2 to conform to your
- #situation. Don't change anything in column 1. The number of spaces before
- #column 2 is not important, but use spaces only, not tabs. If the text you are
- #inserting wraps to the next line that is OK; unless you have typed <return>
- #it will be read as a continuation, not as a new line. But do make sure that
- #there is a <return> after each line of data, and be sure not to insert any
- #spaces after the column 2 entry and before the return (this could cause an
- #error in reading the entry, since Mac filenames, for example, can include
- #spaces). Extra returns (blank lines) are ignored.
- #
- #In this first section, include the trailing directory delimiter in the home
- #(site root) and remote directory names, and begin the remoteHome name with a
- #slash. The localHome must have colon delimiters, and the remoteHome must
- #have slash delimiters. Use full pathnames.
-
- localHome MyHardDrive:MaybeAFolderOrTwo:MySiteRootFolder:
- remoteHome /some_dir/maybe_another-dir/my_site_root_dir/
-
- #In the following section, enter the name of your server, your logon name, and
- #password preferences. The password preferences have three choices: 1. Enter
- #your password (the passWordSave entry will be ignored in this case), and
- #you'll never be asked for it by the applications: security = none; 2. Leave
- #the passWord line blank, set passwordSave to anything except N; you'll be
- #asked for it once by each F-O-M application: security = poor; or 3. Leave the
- #passWord line blank, set passwordSave to N; you'll have to type in the
- #password every time you run an application that signs on: security = good.
- #If you elect option 2, your password is reasonably secure (stored encrypted),
- #but anyone can log into your site from your machine. If using option 2, to
- #change your password, just change the passWordSave letter to something
- #(anything) else, which will re-trigger a query for a password. You may change
- #the password options at any time.

- #The following two files may be renamed and/or moved, but must exist within the
- #site on both local and remote machines. Do not include the path from desktop
- #to (local) root, but do include any subsequent path (deeper than the site
- #root) using colon delimiters. For example, if your changesFile is in your site
- #in a directory called "site_admin" at the root of your site, the listing
- #should read: changesFile site_admin:1changes.txt
- #and so forth. Colons (if present) are automatically changed to slashes by
- #Fetch-O-matic when accessing the remote copies of these files. You may use the
- #default names below. These files will be automatically created by the
- #FetchProfile application with the names as entered here.
-
- changesFile 1changes.txt
- messageFile 2messages.txt
-
- #Your name or initials as will be automatically written to the changesFile.
- #must enter a name even if you are the only one accessing your site.

- #This item has four options. If using Open Transport, and the "PPP Commands"
- #Scripting Addition (part of OT/PPP) is installed, set to "O" (for "Open"). If
- #using MacTCP with FreePPP version 2.6 or later, with the supplied FreePPP
- #Control Scripting Addition, set to "F" (for "FreePPP"). If using MacTCP with
- #MacPPP or FreePPP versions 2.5 or earlier, with the supplied MacPPP Control
- #Scripting Addition, set to "M" (for "MacPPP").Otherwise (or if you don't want
- #Fetch-O-Matic to deal with your internet connection at all) set to "N". (Note:

- #The behaviour when Fetch-O-Matic applications terminate. Set to "N" if you
- #never want them to close (hang up) a connection; set to "Y" if you want them
- #to always close the connection, and set to "D" for "Depends..."; if a
- #connection was already open when the application ran, it will leave it open;
- #otherwise it will close it. This setting can be temporarily overridden by
- #holding the command key down at launch.
-

- #Set to Y to have successfully uploaded and downloaded files automatcally
- #removed from the To Upload and To Download files; set to N otherwise. Removal
- #only occurs after a transfer has been successfully concluded. Default is Y.

- #Since your Activity Log file and changesFile grow indefinitely, you can
- #choose to be alerted when their size surpasses the number (in bytes) set

- #The name of your preferred text application: do not use any path.
- #You will be asked to locate this application the first time you run any
- #Fetch-O-Matic application. Enter the name exactly as it appears on your drive.
- #Otherwise, if the name doesn't correspond exactly, you will be asked to locate
- #the application each time you run a Fetch-O-Matic application. If you later
- #decide to use a different text application you'll need to enter the new name
- #here. SimpleText cannot handle large files so do not use it for large sites.
- #Otherwise, any Applescript-aware text application or word processor can be
- #used. This entry _is_ case-sensitive, as are the other application names.

-
- #The name of application Fetch, without path. The purpose of this setting is
- #to enable you to have more than one version of Fetch, and choose which one
- #to use. Enter the name exactly as it appears on your drive, or else you
- #will be asked for it each time you run a Fetch-O-Matic application. If you
- #have two versions they MUST have different names; since no path is specified,
- #the selection is by name & creator code alone.

- #The name of application List Files, without path. If you're not using List
- #Files (i.e., the option useListFiles is set to N), then this option will be
- #ignored. However, if you set useListFiles to Y and do _not_ have List Files
- #installed, you will be asked to locate the application. You should cancel and
- #set useListFiles to N. If you select a different application by mistake it
- #will be accepted (but it won't work, of course). Running FetchNewLocal again
- #will correct the error - you'll be asked to locate List Files every time until
- #the name of the file you choose matches what's here.
