6.5 Defining Message Areas

One of the most important tasks in configuring MsgEd TE is to tell it where it can find the message areas that you wish to read and to write to. There are basically two ways to do this: You can either manually define each area in the configuration file using the Quick, Fido and Squish keyword, or you can tell MsgEd TE to read in the configuration file of your tosser. The latter method saves you much work, but sometimes you will ned to use the manual method to do some fine-tuning.

It is advisable to put all keywords that have to do with area configuration at the end of your configuration file, because other keywords (like QuickBbsPath, MountDir, et. al.) that change the behaviour of the area definition keywords will only work if they are read in before the area definition keywords.
