    From Shawn Highfield@618:618/12 to All on Mon Feb 17 19:29:06 2025
    Hello All!

    Is there anyone here using msged that is included with the husky package? If there is would you mind sharing your config file? I had it working but now when I launch it just changes the screen to black and nothing is shown.

    I've included the one I'm trying to get working. (windows if it matters)

    ; Here is how you can manually define message areas (in case that MsgEd ; does not support the configuration file of the tosser that you are using): ;
    ; <format> <area-type[msgattrs]> <"Area description"> <path> <tag> [address] ; ; <format> Squish | Fido | Quick
    ; <area-type> m .. netmail
    ; e .. echomail
    ; u .. enable gateway features for this area ; 8 .. write mails with CHRS kludge in this area ; <msgattrs> p .. private
    ; k .. kill/sent
    ; <"description"> Description of area
    ; <path> Path to messagebase (or HMB board number) ; [tag] Echomail areatag; do not specify for non-echomail areas ; [address] FTN address to use for this area
    ;
    ; Some examples:

    Fido mu8p "Netmail Folder" d:\messages
    ; The following settings are common for all locations
    CharsetAlias +7_FIDO CP866
    CharsetAlias RUFIDO CP866
    CharsetAlias FIDO7 CP866
    CharsetAlias FIDO CP866
    AssumeCharset IBMPC
    ; If you are using Codepage 437 as primary codepage (some European users
    ; and most American ones do this because of yet more IBM graphics characters)
    ; use the following block instead of the one above
    ReadMap READMAPS.437
    WriteMap WRITMAPS.437
    OutputCharset IBMPC
    CharsetAlias IBMPC CP437
    Template D:\HUSKY\MSGED.TPL
    ;HelpFile MSGHELP.DAT
    ;This is a binary file containing the online help
    ; Include SCHEME.001
    ; Areas
    Fido e8u "Netmail" D:\MESSAGES 1:229/452.0
    Fido e8u "DUPEMAIL" D:\MESSAGES\DUPE DUPEMAIL 1:229/452.0
    Squish e8u "BADMAIL" D:\MESSAGES\BADMAIL BADMAIL 1:229/452.0 Squish e8u "CBM" D:\MESSAGES\FIDO\CBM CBM 1:229/452.0

    Rest of areas follow above. I've also tried commenting this out and letting msged read the fidoconfig.

    Thanks,

    Shawn
