 +===== Deuce's Unix WWIVEdit Port =====
 +
 +These instructions are written for Debian Linux, so you may need to adjust steps here and there if you are on something else.
 +
 +1. Download wwivedit from http://doors.bbsdev.net/ and extract it to a temp dir
 +2. Make sure you have ncurses 32-bit installed: 
 +
 +<code>
 +dpkg -add-architecture i386
 +apt-get install libncurses5:i386
 +</code>
 +
 +3. Inside the temp dir, run ./install.linux. Specify /sbbs/exec as the BBS dir and /sbbs/exec/wedit as the editor dir. Say NO when it asks if you want it to setup the command lines (it is talking about running under WWIV). 
 +4. Now manually copy wwivedit.linux from your temp dir into /sbbs/exec/wedit
 +5. Edit config/default.def and change values to these:
 +
 +<code>
 +RESULT: [2]
 +ESCTICKS: [2]
 +QUOTER: [0]
 +</code>
 +
 +(NOTE: synchronet's quotes.txt implementation is not compatible with the original wwivedit as it ignores the first 2 lines of quotes.txt--thus it is disabled in the config)
 +
 +
 +6. Go into scfg and make a new external editor entry like this:
 +
 +<code>
 + 1: Name                            Legacy: WWIVEdit 2.5a (Deuce Linux Port)
 + 2: Internal Code                   WEDIT
 + 3: Command Line                    %!wedit/wwivedit.linux %f
 + 4: Access Requirements             ANSI AND SYSOP
 + 5: Intercept I/O                   Standard, WWIV Color
 + 6: Native Executable               Yes
 + 7: Use Shell / New Context         No
 + 8: Record Terminal Width           No
 + 9: Word-wrap Quoted Text           Yes, for terminal width
 +10: Automatically Quoted Text       Prompt User
 +11: Editor Information Files        WWIV EDITOR.INF/RESULT.ED
 +12: Expand Line Feeds to CRLF       No
 +13: Handle Soft Carriage Returns    Retain
 +14: Strip FidoNet Kludge Lines      No
 +15: Support UTF-8 Encoding          No
 +16: BBS Drop File Type              RBBS/QuickBBS   dorinfo#.def
 +</code>
 +
 +7. Recycle the BBS
