CONFIGURATION FILE STRUCTURE
The configuration files (stations, groups, router, macros) all share a similar structure. The files are
encoded in the .csv (comma separated values) format to allow easy access from spreadsheet programs,
text editors, and the web-server program itself.
There are four kinds of rows: blank, comments, headers, and values. If a row is blank, it is ignored.
This allows the creation of white space between blocks of data.
If the first character in the first field of a row is ‘#’, then the contents of the entire row will be ignored .
This gives the administrator the ability to enter and save comments.
If the first field in a row ends with ‘:’ (colon), then the program interprets the entire row as a series of
“headers”. A header describes the meaning and usage of all the fields below the header in that column,
until a new series of headers replaces the current ones and supplies new meanings for the values below
it.
