NAME
alicqrc - Alicq configuration file
DESCRIPTION
alicq condfiguration file is used to customize alicq during startup.
Any configuration file can be specified with -config option when
running alicq. If -config option is not given, default configuration
file is searched depending on current platgorm:
Unix
~/.alicq/alicqrc
primary configuration
~/.alicqrc
for backward compatibility
Windows
%USERPROFILE/alicq/alicq.cfg
/alicq/alicq.cfg
where workingdir is a folder with alicq run file.
FILE FORMAT
Alicq startup file is just a Tcl script, which is sourced by main
program. It looks like configuration file, but it is possible to use
any Tcl command in it. For example, if you want to keep ICQ password in
other file, you may write something like:
source ~/.alicq/password
where ~/.alicq/password contains string
icq password mypassword
or
icq password [eval_password_by_any_way]
Common startup file usually contains following entities:
calls of module loading commands
calls of module configuration commands
resources specifications
arbitrary Tcl code user wants to evaluate in Alicq interpreter on
startup
Module loading command has following syntax: module module-name
module tree
Alicq looks for modules through a list of catalogues:
basedir/modules
where basedir is a directory where current configuration
file is read from.
workingdir/modules
where workingdir is a directory where alicq run file is read
from.
workingdir/../share/alicq/modules
where workingdir is a directory where alicq run file is read
from.
MODULE CONFIGURATION COMMANDS
Each module can have number of configurable parameters. These
parameters can be specified in configuration file using following
syntax:
module-name configurable-parameter value
icq uin 47298730
icq roster use 1
tree hide empty no
tree hide offline yes
List of supported configurable parameters can be retrieved with command
alicq-info [ module-name ]
FILES
$HOME/.alicq/alicqrc
Default startup file for Unix version of Alicq.
$HOME/.alicqrc
Startup file of older versions of Alicq. Used for backward
compatibility.
