fileselector

Except the first two options all options can also be specified at runtime by pressing <ALT>+<z> in the fileselector. However to make changes permanent you have to modify the fileselector section.

modextensions
files containing these extensions will be scanned by the fileselector. Only those files will be shown. If you want to load files with different extensions you have to specify them at the command line.5.14
movepath
the standard path to move files into. This is describend in section 3.3.
screentype
the textmode to use within the fileselector. The options are the same as in the screen section.
typecolors
show files in different colors depending on the file type
editwin
show the edit window at the bottom of the screen
writeinfo
write the info to the information database located in the home directory of OPENCP. This speeds up the processing of directories, as files have to be scanned only once.
scanmdz
if .mdz files are found in the current directory, they will be scanned and the included information used.
scanmodinfo
scan inside the music files for module information.
scanarchives
if archives (like .zip or .rar) are found in the current directory the are scanned for modules.
putarchives
show archives in the fileselector, so they can be used just like subdirectories.
playonce
play every file only once (thus not looping it) and then procede with the next file in the playlist. If the file contains a loop command the loop command is ignored.
randomplay
play files in the playlist in random order.
loop
loop files after the end.
path
the default path to use when starting the fileselector the first time. The default is the current directory (.). If you keep all your music files in one directory you can specfiy this directory here.



Footnotes
