EDITOR.INF

The EDITOR.INF file is a drop file that can be created by BBS software to pass information to an external message editor.

Format

The original EDITOR.INF file format comes from WWIV BBS software and its related message editors (e.g. WWIVedit).

The file is just a simple text file with CRLF-terminated lines:

Line Descripton
1 Message subject/title (up to 70 characters for Synchronet)
2 Message destination (i.e. user name or “All”)
3 Author's user number
4 Author's name (or “Anonymous”)
5 Current user name/alias (usually the same as the Author's name)
6 Author's security level (0-99)
7 flags (number) - not used by Synchronet
8 unsure - not used by Synchronet
9 Author's language preference - not used by Synchronet
