Re: Default Resource File

2002-07-26 01:39:08
Thank you. I don't want to specify a specific rcfile for certain archives.
I would like to just have a default rcfile for all 250 lists that I
archive. How do I specify a default rcfile for all archives and where must
that rcfile live?

I also am a bit hazy as to how I specify environmental variables. Is there
a file that they are listed in and where does that file live?

I have been reading the docs and faqs and mailing lists, but this is still
confusing to me.

I am a bit confused by the DEFRCFILE. The docs say DEFRCFILE is the
pathname to the default resource file.  It also says that the default
setting is MHonArc-library-path/DEFRCNAME, which in my case is:

/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1

The docs also say that DEFRCNAME is used as the name of the default file.
In addition, it says that the default setting is .mhonarc.mrc, which I
don't seem to have.

No .mhonarc.mrc is provided in the MHonArc distribution since it has
its own built-in defaults.  It is something you create so you can
provide customized defaults.

Note, you can always specify an explicit resource file for an
archive to use via the -rcfile command line option (see the RCFILE
resource page in the docs).
