# item in this file, no local copy is generated.
#
# Local copies when enabled also update the history files to prevent the

#
# This option can be extended by adding /read to indicate that all

#
# expert mode
# If this item is set to 1, it changes the behaviour of Snews as follows:
# No confirmation prompts are asked to queries for marking articles
# as read or unread.
# Outgoing articles and Mail are presented to the editor complete with
# header and footer information. Anything can be edited before sending.
#
# If expert is ommitted from this file, or set to 0, behaviour is similar

# prompt in Snews are checked for aliases. Names entered in the editor
# are not checked on exit.

# This item defaults to not quoting headers if it is not present in
# this file.

# This item determines how the subject threading is handled. By default

# match for both articles to be considered to be the same thread.
# If the subjects are both longer that 15 characters, then the match
# is only performed for the shorter of the two subjects.
#
# matchlength allows this default of 15 to be changed.
#
# Special cases:
# 128 - both subjects must be an exact match.
# -1 - Subjects will never match.
#
matchlength=15
#
# footers
# The value to specify what action to take with the "-- " separator.
# If set to on (the default) the signature will be separated from

# with a separator.
