# @(#)folds.inf - 7.2.92
# FOLDS.INF: CONFIGURATION FILE FOR NEWSGROUP FOLDING
#
# Usenet offers hundreds of newsgroups. O can display about twenty of
# them on one page of the newsgroup menu window. This means that, if
# you have many groups, you keep scrolling the menu window to find
# your newsgroup...
# Folding puts an end to this. It allows you to create "folds", something
# like newsgroups containing newsgroups. Folds consist of a name and a
# list of wildcard patterns. In the newsgroup menu, all groups that match
# one of the patterns will be hidden behind a menu entry with that name.
# For example, if folds.inf contained the line:
#
# Comp comp.*
#
# all comp. newsgroups would disappear from the main menu, and a new
# entry "Comp" would show up. Selecting "Comp" will then open a new
# newsgroup window containing all the comp.* newgroups.
#
# Fold names may contain all characters except whitespace and are
# treated case sensitive.
#
# Folds can contain other folds. You might try:
#
# Languages *.lang.*
# Atari *.atari.*
# UU-Code *.binaries.* *.sources.*
# Computers comp.* Languages Atari UU-Code
#
# In this case, the main menu will contain the fold "Computers" which
# in turn contains the folds "Languages" and "Atari" and all comp.*
# newsgroups that are not in either Languages or Atari.
# As you see, newsgroups may appear in more than one fold, in the above
# example the newsgroup "comp.binaries.atari.st" would be in both the
# "Atari" and "Binaries" fold.
# The maximum nesting level of this is 32; this limit is given mainly
# to allow O to detect mutually including folds, like:
#
# For Ever
# Ever For
#
# which creates two folds, "For" and "Ever", each of which contains
# the other.
#
# To many extends, folds behave like newsgroups. They may be kept out
# of the menu by "unsubscribe"ing them in o.inf, and they are affected
# by the "dispgrps" setting. (The number of msgs in a fold is defined
# to be the sum of the number of msgs in all not unsubscribed newsgroups
# in the fold, plus the number of msgs in all folds contained in the
# fold. Yes, this is a recursive definition. Don't worry if you don't
# understand it, it's just the way you'd expect it to be.)
#
# The order in which folds are defined is without any meaning. In menus,
# Folds always appear in alphabetical order.
#
# You may wish to delete this comment block to save space and time
# since this file is kept in main memory while the newsreader is running.
# If you do, be sure to keep a copy.
