NAME

       .ddtcrc - ddtc script configuration file.

DESCRIPTION

       This is the configuration file for ddtc. If it exists, it must be at the top of your home directory ($HOME). This file is optional unless
       you don't want to use default values.

       Lines beginning with a number sign (`#') and empty lines will be ignored.  Spaces at the beginning and the end of a line will also be
       ignored as well as tabulators.  If you need spaces at the end or the beginning of a value you can use apostrophes (`"').  An option line
       starts with it's name followed by a value. An equal sign is optional.  A comment starts with the number sign, there can be any number of
       spaces and/or tab stops in front of the #.  Some possible examples:

	# this line is ignored
	option	 value
	option = value				     # this is a comment
	option	      "value ending with space	 "

       You have to escape number signs with a backslash (`') to use it in a value.

       Default values are provided into square brackets, they should be suitable for most installations.

       You can use the configuration menu from interactive mode to edit it.

GENERAL

       base_dir
	   base directory, sub-directory of your $HOME unless an absolute path (i.e.  beginning with `/') is provided [ddts]

       comment
	   comment string for review, a space character will be added to this string [>>]

       clean_regex
	   regular expression to remove file with clean command [~$|.old$|.bak$]

       language
	   language extension to use when asking for new documents to translate or to review [none]

       editor
	   text editor [sensible-editor]

       ddtc_bug
	   whether reviews are sent in a special way to prevent updating ddts parts databases or not. [no]

	   Caution: if set to `yes', the `reply to accept modification' ddts feature doesn't work anymore and the whole language team should use
	   ddtc. Ask your language team coordinator before setting this option.

EMAIL

       mail_out
	   your email address [first found in $ENV{EMAIL}, $ENV{DEBEMAIL} or none]

       mail_in
	   the mail address you want the ddts to answer to. This is the address the ddts uses for your identification so you must use this if you
	   need to set mail_out to another value [mail_out]

       mail_server
	   email address of the server [desc@ddtp.debian.org]

       mail_encoding
	   mail encoding for mime [8bit]

       mail_charset
	   mail charset for mime [ISO-8859-1 for lack of charset used by ddts]

       mail_self
	   set to `yes' if you want to be sent a copy of outgoing mail [yes]

MENU COLORS

       Set text colors for clear presentation.

       The recognized colors (all of which should be fairly intuitive) are: clear, reset, dark, bold, underline, underscore, blink, reverse, con-
       cealed, black, red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan, white, on_black, on_red, on_green, on_yellow, on_blue, on_magenta, on_cyan, and
       on_white.  Case is not significant.  Underline and underscore are equivalent, as are clear and reset, so use whichever is the most intu-
       itive to you.  The color alone sets the foreground color, and on_color sets the background color.

       Note that not all colors are supported by all terminal types, and some terminals may not support any of these sequences.  Dark, blink, and
       concealed in particular are frequently not implemented.

       menu_title_color
	   color used for menu title [bold cyan]

       menu_letter_color
	   color used for the letter to be entered [bold cyan]

       menu_text_color
	   color used for the menu item description [cyan]
