############ 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. If the remote home is "/" then just
#enter that single slash. Do not include the host name in remoteHome. If you
#don't know your remoteHome path, log on to your site with Fetch and open the
#"Fetch Transcript" window. Just above the listing of your site root will be a
#line '"</.....>" is current directory'. Copy this path (and end with a slash).
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.
remoteHost my_host.com
logOnName my_logon_name

#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
#If you have a folder within your local site copy whose contents you do not
#wish to be added to the To Upload list by FetchNewLocal, enter it here. Do not
#include the path from desktop to (local) root, but do include any subsequent
#path (deeper than the root) using colon delimiters, and conclude with a colon,
#as: ignoreFolder MaybeAFolderInMySiteRoot:dontUploadMyContents: If you
#don't have such a folder, leave this setting blank.
ignoreFolder
#Your name or initials as will be automatically written to the changesFile.
#You must enter a name even if you are the only one accessing your site.

#This item has four options. If using PPP and Open Transport with the "PPP"
#control panel or the newer (System 8.5 and later) "Remote Access" control
#panel, and either the "PPP Commands" or the "Remote Access Commands" Scripting
#Addition is installed, set to "O" (for "Open"). If using Open Transport or
#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:
#see the last paragraph of the "Installation" section of the documentation if
#using MacTCP). ("N" is the correct setting for all cable modem, ADSL, ISDN,
#T1, and similar internet connections).
usePPP O
#The behavior 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.
closeLink D
#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. You must enable
#this option to be able to add files to an upload in progress. Default is Y.
autoRemove 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
#here. Set to 0 (zero) if you never want to see this alert. Default setting is
#80000.
alertSize 80000
#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, almost any text application or word processor can be used. This
#entry _is_ case-sensitive, as are the other application names.
textApp BBEdit 5.0
#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.
fetchApp Fetch 3.0.3
#set to Y if using List Files as a helper when browsing for files to upload
#(recommended, faster); set to N otherwise. Don't set to Y if you don't have
#List Files installed.
useListFiles Y
#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.
listApp List Files FAT
#To have Fetch-O-Matic applications try to re-establish a dropped connection,
#set to "Y" (default); otherwise, set to "N". A reason to set to "N" is if you
#regularly download huge files; with reconnect off, you may be able to tell
#Fetch to resume a partial download manually. If reconnect is set to "Y",
#interrupted downloads and uploads will get restarted from the beginning of
#the interrupted file, then will be followed by the remaining files in the
#transfer queue.
reconnect Y
#Close Fetch connection to server: This setting determines the behavior of
#Fetch-O-Matic applications when they are finished with an FTP session. The
#default is Y, which will cause Fetch to close the connection to the server. If
#you wish this connection held open, set to N. (If set to N, the closeLink
#setting will be ignored).
closeFTP Y
#Ignore the remote changesFile: You may choose to ignore this file if a) you
#always upload from one location only, and b) no one else is uploading files.
#In this situation, since there is only once source for the remote file,
#checking it is not necessary. The only advantage gained is that you save a
#little time uploading and downloading this file. The default ignoreChanges
#setting is "N". WARNING: setting this to "Y" will disable the multi-user and
#multi-location features of Fetch-O-Matic. Furthermore, if you later change
#your mind you will have to manually upload the changesFile at that time.
ignoreChanges N
#Registration Number: You may use Fetch-0-Matic 30 times without seeing a
#reminder notice to register and pay the shareware fee. If you have registered,
#enter the your registration code below. This will eliminate the registration
#dialogs which will otherwise begin to appear.

#Special-purpose settings: Leave these settings blank if not applicable.
#Ignore files with certain extensions: Enter a list of such file extensions
#with comma separators and with no spaces, such as
#ignoreFiles .dir,.cst,.lck,.psd,.pla,.plx,.snd
#These extensions may each have any number of characters, and there can be as
#many of them as you like, but they must all begin with a period. No files with
#the extensions entered here will be added to the To Upload list. Leave this
#setting blank if you don't have any such files. In the case of files with
#multiple extensions, they are handled as in the following examples: if a file
#has extension .sit.hqx, if you enter ".hqx" you will exclude it and all other
#.hqx files. If you instead enter ".sit.hqx", you will still exclude that file
#but will now include files ending in .hqx alone as well as other
#multiple-extension files such as .cpt.hqx. In other words, the extension
#entered must match exactly from back to front for an exclusion to occur.
ignoreFiles
#Dual-server settings: If your site has a second machine (with a different IP
#address, but logically within the site, for example to serve streaming video),
#enter its parameters just as done for the primary machine. The altDirHead
#setting specifies the start of the names of any directories on your local
#mirror whose contents are destined for the alternate server. The altDirHead
#can be as short as a single character or it can encompass a path of any
#length. Any directory (and its subdirectories) whose local path (i.e. within
#the local root) commences with altDirHead will be related to the alternate
#server instead of the primary one. For example: in the root of your local
#mirror there are 3 directories named video, video1, video2. If you set
#altDirHead to video then anything in all of these directories will be destined
#for the alternate server. If you set altDirHead to video1, only the contents
#of video1 will be so directed. This works of course for downloads as well as
#for uploads. (The altPassWord entry and storage is handled according to the
#preference set in the passWordSave line for the primary server).

#The following settings affect only the FetchHarvest application. If you do
#not use it then you don't need to change these default settings.
#Make new folders: FetchHarvest may be configured to create a new local folder
#with a unique time-stamp name for each download session. If this is the
#desired behaviour, set to "Y". Otherwise, set to "N". If there is nothing to
#download, no folder will be created (there will be no empty folders). The
#created folders will appear in the localHome directory, effectively adding a
#level to the local hierarchy.
timeStampFolders N
#Download time of day: FetchHarvest can be set to check regularly at either
#a specified interval, or at specified times of the day. If you wish it to
#check at particular times, enter the times here, in 24-hour time format, with
#commas as separators and without spaces, as in this example:
#harvestTimes 09:30,12:30,15:02,18:45
#FetchHarvest will always ask for an interval when the application is run, but
#if times are specified this interval is ignored. There is no limit to the
#number of specified times, and a single time is also acceptable. As with all
#settings, if the entry wraps to the next line it will still be read properly.
harvestTimes
#Minimize online time: FetchHarvest needs to determine which files to download
#after looking through the remote site. If there are many files for it to sort
#through, this could take some time. To have FetchHarvest consult the closeLink
#setting after its information-gathering phase, set to N. (If FetchHarvest then
#determines there are files to download, it will reconnect and proceed). If
#set to Y, FetchHarvest will stay online until the entire process is complete.
