Text Directory

The Synchronet text directory contains several forms of text files, generally displayable to users of the BBS.

Directory Contents

With a few exceptions, the text directory contains files that may be displayed to users (e.g. menu files displayed in the Terminal Server).

The stock/default contents of the text directory can be browsed online here.

A daily snapshot archive of the stock/default contents of the text directory can downloaded in zip (for Windows) or tgz (for *nix).

Since many of the files in the text directory may reflect the sysop's personal customizations, it's a highly recommended to be very careful when replacing/overwriting any files in this directory.

Sub-directories

The menu files displayed to users of the Terminal Server are stored in the text/menu directory.

References to the files in the text/menu directory may be made from command shells, loadable modules, services, text.dat lines, and web interface scripts.

See text files for more details.
