- ; Like all standard AREAS.BBS files, the first NON-COMMENT line should
- ; be the name of your system, followed by an exclamation point, and then
- ; your name. This name will be used when adding origin lines to messages
- ; which were created on your system.
-
- No-name BBS * Anytown, Anystate! Joe SysOp
-
- ; Next, you can define any number of EchoMail areas. Squish uses the
- ; standard format for defining EchoMail areas, but with one exception:
- ;
- ; To specify a Squish-format message area, add a dollar sign ('$')
- ; before the path/filename of the area. For example, to declare
- ; the D:\MSG\AARDVARK.SQ? files as being of the Squish type, one would
- ; place the following entry in AREAS.BBS:
- ;
- ; $D:\MSG\AARDVARK AARDVARK 1:123/1 2 ...
- ;
- ; If an area's path does NOT begin with a '$', Squish assumes that
- ; the area uses the *.MSG format.
- ;
- ; To specify a "passthru" message area, add an octothorpe ('#') before
- ; the path/filename of the area. In most cases, you'll want
- ; to declare passthru areas using the Squish format (add "#$" before
- ; the area's path), since passthru Squish areas do not need a separate
- ; directory to hold the duplicate data files.
