| You can also edit the configuration file manually. The configuration file, SlyEdit.cfg (located in the ''[[dir:ctrl]]'' directory), is a regular text file. It is split up into 3 sections - Behavior, Ice colors, and DCT colors. These sections are designated by [BEHAVIOR], [ICE_COLORS], and [DCT_COLORS], respectively. Each setting has a name=value format. Comments can be added on their own line starting with a ; (semicolon) character. The settings for SlyEdit.cfg are described below:\\ | You can also edit the configuration file manually.

| | allowSpellCheck | Whether or not the spell check feature is allowed. Valid values are true and false; it defaults to true if not specified.

This option was added in version 1.71. | | | allowSpellCheck | Whether or not the spell check feature is allowed. Valid values are true and false; it defaults to true if not specified.

| | dictionaryFilenames | A comma-separated list of filenames for dictionaries, for the spell checker feature. The filenames are in the format dictionary_<language>.txt, where <language> is the language name. For dictionaryFilenames, you can also just specify the language names if you want. The dictionary filenames will be looked for in sbbs/mods, sbbs/ctrl, and then the directory where SlyEdit.js is located. Note that the dictionary files must be sorted for proper word matching, and the words in the dictionary must be all lower-case, since SlyEdit does case-insensitive matching via all lower-cased words. This was added in version 1.64. | | | dictionaryFilenames | A comma-separated list of filenames for dictionaries, for the spell checker feature.

| | | areYouThere | Specifies a string to display for the input timeout warning (like item 668, AreYouThere in text.dat). The reason SlyEdit has its own version of this string is in case you decide to change the one in text.dat; for SlyEdit, it should be a string that can fit on one line on the screen. | |
