+{{:monitor:gtkmonitor_configure.png|GtkMonitor configure option}}
+And edit the various [[:config:text files]], [[:config:INI files]], [[:config:CFG files]], and [[:config:filter files]] used by Synchronet.
+==== Settings ====
+The GtkMonitor configuration settings are stored in the ''[[:dir:ctrl]]/gtkmonitor.ini'' file.
+===== Customization =====
+The utilities for viewing and editing various file types are sysop configurable via the File->Customize menu.
+GtkMonitor may also be used to edit the Synchronet BBS ''[[custom:text.dat]]'' file and ''[[custom:menu files]].''
