Within this directory are several subdirectories, to wit:
m4 | General support routines. These are typically very important and should not be changed without very careful consideration. |
cf | The configuration files themselves. They have
".mc" suffixes, and must be run through m4 to become complete.
The resulting output should have a ".cf" suffix. |
ostype | Definitions describing a particular operating system type.
These should always be referenced using the OSTYPE macro in the
.mc file. Examples include "bsd4.3" , "bsd4.4" ,
"sunos3.5" , and "sunos4.1" . |
domain | Definitions describing a particular domain, referenced using the
DOMAIN macro in the .mc file. These
are site dependent; for example, "CS.Berkeley.EDU.m4" describes
hosts in the CS.Berkeley.EDU subdomain. |
mailer | Descriptions of mailers. These are referenced using the
MAILER macro in the .mc file. |
sh | Shell files used when building the .cf file from the .mc file
in the cf subdirectory. |
feature | These hold special orthogonal features that you might want to
include. They should be referenced using the FEATURE macro. |
hack | Local hacks. These can be referenced using the
HACK macro. They shouldn't be of more
than voyeuristic interest outside the .Berkeley.EDU domain, but who knows?
We've all got our own peccadillos. |
siteconfig | Site configuration -- e.g., tables of locally connected UUCP sites. |
