Setting your user configuration can be done in two ways; either
via the user configuration menu accessed by .e(nter) c(onfiguration),
or via .e(nter) o(ption), which sets individual configuration options.
The options available for setting by either of these commands are;
[A]sk for subjects - when you [E]nter a message, STadel will ask you
for the subject of that message. (On replies to previous messages,
STadel automatically generates a Re: subject, which you may edit.)
[C]r/lf - STadel will output CR/LF for newlines. Most terminals
and terminal programs require this; the only time you need to turn this
off is when you see that all output is being double-spaced.
[E]xpert - makes STadel a bit more terse.
[F]loor mode - This tells STadel how you want to do room movement. If
you are in floor mode, STadel will stay on a floor as long as possible
for doing [G]oto's, and will only show rooms on the current floor for
[K]nown rooms.
[H]eader format - Selects either Citadel-format message headers or
multiline message headers. Multiline message-headers are the only
ones that provide an indication of how many more messages are left
unread for the current read command.
[I]D's - If on, STadel displays the message number in the message
header.
[M]- If on, STadel will treat all read commands as if you selected
m(ore); i.e. - [n]ew acts like you did .r(ead) m(ore) n(ew), etc.
[N]ulls - If your terminal program loses characters at the beginning
of each line, you should set this to some nonzero value; If this is
nonzero, STadel will send however many NUL characters (ASCII 0) you
want after it does a newline.
[O]- When doing a [n]ew or r(ead) n(ew), display the last old message
first, to provide context.
[P]agelength - If nonzero, STadel will pause output after however many
lines (when you are reading messages or helpfiles) and prompt you `More...'
- This is handy for highspeed modems and for people who don't like to
lean on [P] all the time. At the `More...' prompt, Q quits the reading
command, as does S; J jumps to the next paragraph; A restarts the article/
helpfile, and N jumps to the next article (just like the keys you can
strike when output is scrolling.
O[R]ganizations - Displays the organization field of messages.
[S]ubjects - Displays subject fields on messages.
[T]ime of messages - Display the time of day that the messages were
entered.
[V]alues - shows your current user configuration.
[W]idth - sets your terminal width.
[Y] - sets the default protocol for use with the [d]ownload command.
(and in the future when a larger set of file commands are available,
this will set the default protocol for all of them.) When you select
this option, stadel will prompt you for the first character of the
transfer protocol that you want - you may select [x]modem,
[y]modem-single, [w]xmodem, [v]anilla, or [return] to deactivate the
protocol (If deactivated, it will default to xmodem.)
Again, type: .EC to get into configuration mode.
