How To Create Your Own Configuration Files

Currently no documentation has been created, however here is a brief description of how you can make modifications:

  1. Open up the "conf" folder
  2. The conf folder has 3 subfolders:
    • Audio - The Audio folder is used for storing audio clips. Audio clips should be placed in a separate subfolder named according to the ISO language/dialect abbreviation. (i.e. crk = plains cree (y dialect), crs = swampy cree (n dialect), etc.)
    • Langlists - The Langlists folder contains lists of words for use with the modules. You may create your own language list or add to an existing one. Any line beginning with a '#' is a comment for people to read, but is ignored by the computer. Lines beginning with a '$' are variables (usually used to hold information that might be different for each user). Data lines containing a '%' will link to the variable lines.
    • Modules - The Modules folder contains configuration files for the particular modules. Each configuration file is either a "Menu" file or a "Module" file and should be stated in the file itself. Menu files simply point create a link to other menu files or to a module file. Lines beginning with a '$' are variables that tell the module how to run (such as what buttons to show, and the default settings they start at).
  3. Have a look at each of these files to see how they are formatted, they should give you an idea of how to add items. If you have any questions give me a shout.
  4. Note: When saving macrons in notepad (or other Windows word processor) the encoding must be saved as UTF-8. After you select File->Save As the Save-As dialog window will pop up. Change the Encoding from "ANSI" to "UTF-8". (If you use Linux rather Windows, the default encoding should already be UTF-8.)
