  • Document SyncTERM list locations

    From Rob Swindell@VERT to GitLab issue in main/sbbs on Sat Feb 6 06:21:14 2021

    It would be very helpful to document (e.g. in Manual.txt) where SyncTERM expects to find the system and user syncterm.lst files (and they work together).

    On Windows, the system list is stored in users\All Users\SyncTERM\syncterm.lst whereas the user list is stored in users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\SyncTERM\syncterm.lst.

    On *nix, the system list is stored in /usr/local/etc/syncterm.lst and the user list is stored in ~/.syncterm/syncterm.lst.

    Something like that would be very helpful.

    Mac user is /Users/USER/Library/Preferences/SyncTERM/syncterm.lst

    @phareous do you happen to know the shared location for the list on MacOS?

    @tracker1 I don't think is one. If I open the app as root, the list is completely empty. So it seems to only use the user's list
