ETERM(1)

NAME
Eterm — an Enlightened terminal emulator for the X Window System

SYNOPSIS
Eterm [options]

DESCRIPTION

Eterm — version 0.8.9 — is a color vt102 terminal emulator intended as an xterm(1) replacement for users who want a term program integrated with Enlightenment, or simply want a little more "eye candy". Eterm uses Imlib for advanced graphic abilities. See below for details.

OPTIONS
The Eterm options are listed below. In keeping with the freedom-of-choice philosophy, options may be eliminated or default values chosen at compile-time, so options and defaults listed may not accurately reflect the version installed on your system. Options that do not take a parameter (besides -h and --help) are boolean. If you use the POSIX (short) option, you are forcing the parameter to "true". If you use the long option, you can use any of the accepted boolean values, which are "yes", "on", "1", and "true" to turn the option on, or "no", "off", "0", or "false" to turn the option off. The same is true for boolean values in the configuration file.

-t theme, --theme theme
    Load specified theme. Consult the FAQ for more details on what constitutes an Eterm theme.

-X conffile, --config-file conffile
    Use an alternative config file name. Otherwise Eterm uses the default, which is MAIN.

-h, --help
    Print out a message describing available options.

--version
    Print Eterm version and compile-time configuration.

--debug level
    Show debugging output. level is an integer between 0 and 5 which determines how verbose the debugging output is.

-r, --reverse-video
    Reverse video, swaps the foreground and background colors.

-b color, --background-color color
    Set color as the background color. NOTE: this will actually be the foreground color if reverse video is also selected.

-f color, --foreground-color color
    Set color as the foreground (text) color. NOTE: this will actually be the background color if reverse video is also selected.

--color0 color

...

--color15 color
    Use color as color X.

--colorBD color
    Use color as the bold color.

--colorUL color
    Use color as the underline color.

--menu-text-color color
    Use color as the menu text color (only makes sense if menu is enabled).

-S color, --scrollbar-color color
    Use color as the scrollbar color (only makes sense if scrollbar is enabled).

--unfocused-scrollbar-color color
    Use color as the scrollbar color when window does not have focus (only makes sense if scrollbar is enabled).

--pointer-color color
    Use color as the pointer color.

-c color, --cursor-color color
    Use color as the cursor color.

--cursor-text-color color
    Use color as the cursor text color.

-d displayname, --display displayname
    Attempt to open a window on the named X display displayname. In the absence of this option, the display specified by the DISPLAY environment variable is used.

-g geom, --geometry geom
    Window geometry as Width x Height+X coord+Y coord, i.e 100x200+0+100

-i,--iconic
    Start in iconified state (only if the window manager supports iconification).

-n name, --name name
    Sets name of current instance to name. This will affect the icon title and the window title string unless they are otherwise explicitly set.

-T title, --title title
    Sets window's title text to title.

--icon-name text
    Sets the icon title text to text.

-B type, --scrollbar-type type
    Specifies the type scrollbar style should be used. type can be any of motif, xterm, or next.

--scrollbar-width width
    Set the width of the scrollbar, in pixels, to width. Eterm does not impose any restrictions on this value, but it should be reasonable.

-D desktop, --desktop desktop
    Starts the Eterm on the specified desktop. desktop should be an integer between 0 and your highest-numbered desktop. NOTE: You must have a GNOME-compliant window manager for this feature to work. Please see http://www.gnome.org/devel/gnomewm/ for more information on the _WIN_WORKSPACE property and how to support it.

--bold-font font
    Sets the bold text font to font.

-F font, --font font
    Sets the normal text font to font.

--font1 font

...

--font4 font
    Sets font X to font.

-P pic, --background-pixmap pic
    Use pic as the background image. pic can be in any format that Imlib understands. Currently this means just about anything, including JPG, PNG, GIF, TIFF, PPM, etc. The image is tiled by default. To scale the image, use the --scale option below.

-I pic, --icon pic
    Sets the icon pixmap file to pic. Works similarly to the -P option above.

--up-arrow-pixmap pic
    As above, except the scrollbar's up-arrow is set. NOTE: This is not currently implemented.

--down-arrow-pixmap pic
    As above, except the scrollbar's down-arrow is set. NOTE: This is not currently implemented.

--trough-pixmap pic
    As above, except the scrollbar's background (trough) is set. NOTE: This is not currently implemented.

--anchor-pixmap pic
    As above, except the scrollbar's anchor image is set. NOTE: This is not currently implemented.

-@, --scale
    Scale the image rather than tile. Only makes sense if the background pixmap option is used (see above).

-W, --watch-desktop
    In a pseudo-transparent Eterm, this will watch the desktop for changes to the image, Eterm moving to a different desktop, etc. Use with the transparency options below.

-O, --trans
    This gives a pseudo-transparent Eterm. The image is taken directly from the root window, so any requests for changing the pixmap are ignored. If you do not use Enlightenment (http://www.enlightenment.org/) as your window manager, you will need to use the Esetroot program in the doc/ directory to set your root background image.

--shade percentage
    Darkens the background pixmap (either an image file or the transparent portion can be shaded). The amount of shading is controlled by the specified percentage, which may or may not be followed by a percent sign.

--tint mask
    Tints the background pixmap (either an image file or the transparent portion can be shaded). The mask is an integer, usually specified in hexadecimal in the form 0xRRGGBB, where RR, GG, and BB are hexadecimal numbers between 00 and ff (0 and 255 decimal) which represent the brightness of the image's red, green, and blue values, respectively. A value of 00 will mask that color out entirely, while a value of ff will not change that color at all. Some common tints are:
    none 0xffffff
    red 0xff8080
    green 0x80ff80
    blue 0x8080ff
    cyan 0x80ffff
    magenta 0xff80ff
    yellow 0xffff80

-p newpath, --path newpath
    Sets the pic search path. When the --background-pixmap or other pixmap options are used, this path will be used to find the image.

-N list, --anim list
    Specifies an animation list to be use in cycling the background pixmap. The list consists of two or more words. The first word defines the delay, in seconds, between updates of the background. This should be set to a reasonable value to insure that Eterm doesn't spend all its time rendering backgrounds. All remaining words have the same syntax as the background attribute in a configuration file (two integers followed by the image filename), except that the two integers are optional. If they are specified, remember to group them with the filename using quotes. The following are both valid:
    Eterm -N '10 image1.jpg image2.jpg'
    Eterm -N '10 "0 0 image1.jpg" "-1 -1 image2.jpg"'

-l, --login-shell
    Makes the new shell a login shell.

-s, --scrollbar
    Enables the scrollbar. (Default)

--menubar
    Enables the menubar. (Default)

-u, --utmp-logging
    Tries to enable proper utmp logging. For this to work, Eterm probably needs to run setuid or setgid, usually setuid root.

-v, --visual-bell
    Enables the "visual bell". Means the window will flash or blink rather than beep.

-H, --home-on-echo
    Jump to bottom on output.

--home-on-input
    Jump to bottom on input.

-E, --home-on-refresh
    Jump to bottom on refresh (^L)

--scrollbar-right
    Display scrollbar on the right hand side.

--scrollbar-floating
    Display the scrollbar without a trough.

--scrollbar-popup
    Display the scrollbar only when the Eterm window is focused.

-x, --borderless
    This option forces Eterm to have no borders. This also means that the window can not be moved (unless the -V or --menubar-move option is specified) or resized. Recommend using --geometry as well with this option.

-m, --map-alert
    Un-iconify on beep.

-8, --meta8
    Causes the Meta key to set the 8th bit in the char.

--save-under
    If supported by the X server, tries to use backing store for faster refreshes.

--no-cursor
    Disables the text cursor.

-V, --menubar-move
    This options causes Eterm to enable the moving of the Eterm window by dragging the right-hand side of the menubar. This is useful for borderless Eterms (and is, in fact, on by default if the -x or --borderless option is specified).

--pause
    After the child process terminates, Eterm will wait for a keypress before exiting.

--xterm-select
    Duplicate's xterm's treatment of cutchars. The only real difference is what happens when you double click on a single cutchar between two words. If this option is on, only that single character gets selected. If it is off, that character is selected along with the two words. The latter behavior is useful for double-clicking on the space between someone's first and last names, or the @ sign in an e-mail address, etc.

--select-line
    If activated, this option causes a triple click to select the entire line from beginning to end. If off, a triple-click selects just from the current word to the end of the line.

--viewport-mode
    This activates a special Eterm mode which is hard to describe in words. Basically, imagine the effect you get with pseudo-transparency, where the desktop background moves through the Eterm window as you move the window, so that it always aligns with the desktop image. Now, imagine the same effect, but the image used isn't the desktop image but any pixmap you choose. The image is scaled or tiled up to the size of the desktop, and dragging the Eterm around the screen reveals different portions of the image as you move, much like a small viewport window in a ship or submarine does. The effect is especially keen if you open several Eterms in this mode with the same image.

--big-font-key keysym
    Specify a keysym to increase the font size. Default is Shift and the + key on the keypad. Ctrl-> or Meta-> may also work (if you #define one of the hotkeys in src/feature.h).

--small-font-key keysym
    Specify a keysym to decrease the font size. Default is Shift and the - key on the keypad. Ctrl-< or Meta-< may also work (if you #define one of the hotkeys in src/feature.h).

--app-keypad
    Start Eterm in application keypad mode (as opposed to normal keypad mode).

--app-cursor
    Start Eterm in application cursor key mode (as opposed to normal cursor key mode).

-L num, --save-lines num
    Set the number of lines in the scrollback buffer to num.

-a size, --min-anchor-size size
    Specifies the minimum size, in pixels high, of the scrollbar anchor. NOTE: This causes abnormal scrolling behavior when combined with large scrollback buffers!

-w width, --border-width width
    Set the window's border width to width. The border this controls is the gap between the edge of the X window and the edge of the terminal window; this has nothing to do with the window border's your window manager supplies.

--print-pipe pipe
    The pipe for the PrintScreen function.

--cut-chars separators
    The seperators for double-click selection.

-M file, --menu file
    Replace default menubar file with file. To disable the menubar altogether, do not specify a bogus value for file. Instead, use the boolean option --menubar off

--term-name TERM
    Use TERM for the value $TERM.

-C, --console
    Grab console messages. Depending on your system, Eterm may need to be setuid root to do this.

-e command, --exec command
    Execute command rather than a shell.

SPECIAL LANGUAGE FEATURES
The following are *NOT* compiled in by default.

Kanji (Japanese character) options

-K font, --kanji-font font
    Use font as the default kanji font.

--kanji-font1 font

...

--kanji-font4 font
    Use font as kanji font X.

--kanji-encoding
    Use Kanji encoding mode (eucj or sjis).

Greek options

--greek-keyboard
    Use Greek keyboard mapping (iso or ibm).

THEMES
Eterm is built on the philosophy of Freedom of Choice. Each user should be able to choose the environment in which he wishes to exist, and the tools he uses should support that. In accordance with that philosophy, Eterm is extremely configurable. Eterm supports a concept called "themes," which should be familiar to users of Enlightenment, icewm, or Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT. The general concept of a theme is a collection of resources that change as many aspects of a programs look and feel as possible. For example, an Enlightenment theme allows you to customize menus, window borders, desktops, icons, iconbars, and everything else about how E looks and feels. An Eterm theme consists of a primary configuration file, always called "MAIN", residing in a directory bearing the same name as the theme. This directory must be a child of one of the directories specified by CONFIG_SEARCH_PATH in src/feature.h, in the environment variable defined by PATHENV in src/feature.h, or in the default PATH. The theme may also contain additional configuration files referenced by the primary MAIN file, pixmaps, menu files, documentation, etc., which are allowable as extensions to the minimum requirement of an Eterm theme. By convention and default, Eterm themes should be stored under ~/.Eterm/themes/<theme_name>/ or /usr/X11R6/share/Eterm/themes/<theme_name>. All command line options can be enabled/disabled in the theme's configuration file (the default is /usr/X11R6/share/Eterm/themes/Eterm/MAIN). The next section contains details on the format and usage of the configuration file.

CONFIGURATION
Since Eterm 0.8.9 is based on the concept of themes, it is vital that you have a thorough understanding of the previous section before taking on this one. The previous section and this one were written by the same person who wrote the Eterm code which handles options, config files, and themes, so it's probably the most authoritative documentation on the subject you're going to find. From here on out, I will assume you've read the above text and know how to change the default value for the theme and the config file name. Just realize that when I subsequently refer to MAIN, if you are using a different name, substitute the name you supplied in place of MAIN. I may also refer to the Eterm theme. If you are using a different theme, substitute your theme's name in place of Eterm. It is highly recommended that you have a copy of the Eterm theme MAIN file that comes with Eterm handy while you read this documentation. Okay, first the general idea. The MAIN file is composed of comments and non-comments. Comments begin with a pound sign and continue to the end of the line. Lines of whitespace are also ignored. The rest of the file is the config stuff, which is divided into sections (called "contexts") and variables (called "attributes"). There are eight valid contexts: color, attributes, pixmaps, toggles, keyboard, misc, kanji, and main. Each attribute must be inside a certain context to be valid. For instance, while the "foreground" attribute is perfectly acceptable in the color context, it would be rejected if found in, say, the toggles context. This allows for better organization of the config file. Each context must be enclosed in a begin...end pair that specifies the type of section. The statement "begin toggles" starts the toggles context, and the next "end" statement would terminate it. The rest of this section will contain a step-by-step analysis of the config file, including what can go in each section. Note that some attributes (and even entire contexts) may not be available depending on what support was compiled into Eterm by the person who built it.

MAGIC NUMBER
    The first line of the config file must contain a "magic number" type line that lets Eterm verify that it's reading an Eterm config file and not something else (like an Enlightenment 0.13 and earlier config file). The line should look like this: <Eterm-VERSION> where VERSION is the Eterm version for which the config file is intended. For example, config files written for Eterm 0.8 should have "<Eterm-0.8>" as their first line, followed immediately by a newline.

MAIN CONTEXT
    There are very few things that are valid within the "main" context. In fact, the only non-comment lines allowed in the main context are begin's and end's for other contexts. According to the internal mechanism of Eterm, each context can have any number of subcontexts, but as it is currently implemented, only main has any. Valid subcontexts for main are color, attributes, pixmaps, toggles, keyboard, misc, and kanji. They can appear in any order. The order I list them here is simply the order in which they appear in the default themes, which was arbitrarily chosen for continuity.

COLOR CONTEXT
    This context contains color specifications. With the exception of tint and the terminal colors 0-15, all colors should be either a valid color name or an RGB string as outlined in the X11(7) man page.
    foreground color
        Use color for the foreground (text) color.
    background color
        Use color for the background color.
    tint mask
        Tints the background pixmap (either an image file or the transparent portion can be shaded). The mask is an integer, usually specified in hexadecimal in the form 0xRRGGBB, where RR, GG, and BB are hexadecimal numbers between 00 and ff (0 and 255 decimal) which represent the brightness of the image's red, green, and blue values, respectively. A value of 00 will mask that color out entirely, while a value of ff will not change that color at all. Some common tints are:
            none 0xffffff
            red 0xff8080
            green 0x80ff80
            blue 0x8080ff
            cyan 0x80ffff
            magenta 0xff80ff
            yellow 0xffff80
    shade percentage
        Darkens the background pixmap (either an image file or the transparent portion can be shaded). The amount of shading is controlled by the specified percentage, which may or may not be followed by a percent sign.
    cursor color
        Use color for the cursor color.
    cursor_text color
        Use color for the cursor text color.
    menu_text color
        Use color for the menu text color.
    scrollbar color
        Use color for the scrollbar color.
    unfocusedscrollbar color
        Use color for the scrollbar color if Eterm is unfocused.
    pointer color
        Use color for the mouse pointer color.
    video { normal | reverse }
        normal will not reverse the foreground and background colors. reverse (meaning reverse video) will.
    color num color
        Set terminal color num (0-15) to the color name, string, or set of 3 decimal/hex/octal RGB values specified by color.
    color { bd | ul } color
        Set terminal bold (bd) or underline (ul) color to the color name, string, or set of 3 decimal/hex/octal RGB values specified by color.

ATTRIBUTES CONTEXT
    This context contains X11 attributes. Most of these are dependent upon the cooperation of the window manager.
    geometry geom
        Use the geometry string geom to specify the startup geometry. geom should be in the format WxH+X+Y where W is the width, H is the height, and +X and +Y are the X and Y offsets. If the signs on X and Y are positive, the coordinates are offsets (in pixels) from the left and top, respectively, of the screen. If the signs are negative, the offsets are relative to the right and bottom of the screen, respectively.
    title title
        Use title as the text in the title bar of the Eterm window.
    name name
        Use name as the resource name of the Eterm window.
    iconname name
        Use name as the icon name of the Eterm window icon.
    desktop num
        Start Eterm on desktop num. NOTE: This requires a GNOME-compliant Window Manager. Please see http://www.gnome.org/devel/gnomewm/ for more information on the _WIN_WORKSPACE property and how to support it.
    scrollbar_type type
        Use a scrollbar with the type style. type can be any of motif, xterm, or next.
    scrollbar_width num
        Use a scrollbar that is num pixels wide.
    font num font
    font bold font
        Set the numth font (0-4), or the bold font, to font.

PIXMAPS CONTEXT
    This context contains attributes related to pixmaps.
    background x_scale y_scale filename
        Use filename as the background image for the Eterm window. filename can be an absolute path, relative to the current theme, or relative to one of the directories in the path attribute listed below. The x_scale and y_scale values should be either both 0 (tile) or both -1 (scale).
    path directory_list
        Specifies a colon-delimited list of directories relative to which Eterm should search for image and menu files. The syntax for directory_list is precisely the same as that of the $PATH environment variable in UNIX shells.
    icon filename
        Use filename as the icon image for the Eterm window. filename can be an absolute path, relative to the current theme, or relative to one of the directories in the path attribute listed above.
    anim interval images ...
        Specifies an animation list to be use in cycling the background pixmap. interval defines the delay, in seconds, between updates of the background. This should be set to a reasonable value to insure that Eterm doesn't spend all its time rendering backgrounds. All remaining words have the same syntax as the background attribute in a configuration file (two integers followed by the image filename), except that the two integers are optional. If they are specified, remember to group them with the filename using quotes. The following are both valid:
            anim 10 image1.jpg image2.jpg
            anim 10 "0 0 image1.jpg" "-1 -1 image2.jpg"

TOGGLES CONTEXT
    This context contains boolean variables which can be toggled on or off. Valid values for the attributes in this section are "yes", "on", "1", and "true" to turn the option on, or "no", "off", "0", or "false" to turn the option off. These values are denoted by boolean. They all default to false unless otherwise noted.
    map_alert boolean
        If true, Eterm will un-iconify itself when it receives a beep (ASCII 0x07).
    visual_bell boolean
        If true, Eterm will flash rather than sending a beep.
    login_shell boolean
        If true, Eterm will prepend '-' to the shell name when calling it. Depending on your shell, this may modify its startup behavior.
    scrollbar boolean
        This turns on and off the display of the scrollbar. Default is on.
    menubar boolean
        This turns on and off the display of the menubar. Default is on.
    utmp_logging boolean
        If true, Eterm will attempt to make an entry in the utmp file to record the login information. Eterm may need to run privileged to do this.
    meta8 boolean
        Toggles the interpretation of the Meta key setting the 8th bit in a character.
    iconic boolean
        If true, Eterm will launch as an icon.
    home_on_echo boolean
        Zoom to the bottom of the scrollback buffer on output.
    home_on_input boolean
        Zoom to the bottom of the scrollback buffer on input.
    home_on_refresh boolean
        Zoom to the bottom of the scrollback buffer on refresh (Ctrl-L).
    scrollbar_floating boolean
        If true, the scrollbar will have no trough.
    scrollbar_right boolean
        If true, Eterm will put the scrollbar on the right of the window (default is left).
    scrollbar_popup boolean
        If true, Eterm will hide the scrollbar when the Eterm window loses focus and restore it when focus is regained. Default is to not change the scrollbar state based on focus.
    borderless boolean
        If true, Eterm will run with no window borders. This also means that the window can not be moved or resized. You will want to specify a geometry with this attribute.
    save_under boolean
        If true, Eterm will use a backing store.
    trans boolean
        Toggles Eterm's pseudo-transparency feature. Yes, it's fake. Yes, it will always be fake. Don't ask.
    watch_desktop boolean
        This option is required if you want Eterm to watch for updates to the desktop background image, including moving across desktops. There is a speed sacrifice that must be made for this feature, although I've tried to make it as small as possible.
    no_cursor boolean
        If true, Eterm will not display a text cursor.
    menubar_move boolean
        This options causes Eterm to enable the moving of the Eterm window by dragging the right-hand side of the menubar. This is useful for borderless Eterms (and is, in fact, on by default if the borderless attribute is true).
    pause boolean
        After the child process terminates, Eterm will wait for a keypress before exiting.
    xterm_select boolean
        Duplicate's xterm's treatment of cutchars. The only real difference is what happens when you double click on a single cutchar between two words. If this option is on, only that single character gets selected. If it is off, that character is selected along with the two words. The latter behavior is useful for double-clicking on the space between someone's first and last names, or the @ sign in an e-mail address, etc.
    select_line boolean
        If true, this attribute causes a triple-click to select from the current word to the end of the line. If off, a triple click selects the entire line from beginning to end.
    select_trailing_spaces boolean
        If true, this attribute causes spaces at the end of a line to be included as part of the selection text when selecting. The default is to strip these trailing spaces.
    viewport_mode boolean
        This activates a special Eterm mode which is hard to describe in words. Basically, imagine the effect you get with pseudo-transparency, where the desktop background moves through the Eterm window as you move the window, so that it always aligns with the desktop image. Now, imagine the same effect, but the image used isn't the desktop image but any pixmap you choose. The image is scaled or tiled up to the size of the desktop, and dragging the Eterm around the screen reveals different portions of the image as you move, much like a small viewport window in a ship or submarine does. The effect is especially keen if you open several Eterms in this mode with the same image.

KEYBOARD CONTEXT
    This context contains keyboard-related configuration options.
    smallfont_key keysym
        Specify a keysym to decrease the font size. Default is Shift and the - key on the keypad. Ctrl-< or Meta-< may also work (if you #define one of the hotkeys in src/feature.h).
    bigfont_key keysym
        Specify a keysym to increase the font size. Default is Shift and the + key on the keypad. Ctrl-> or Meta-> may also work (if you #define one of the hotkeys in src/feature.h).
    keysym keysym string
        Define keysym keysym to send string instead of its default. keysym must be between 0xff00 and 0xffff or Eterm will complain.
    greek boolean { iso | ibm }
        Turn on/off greek keyboard support, and set which greek mode to use.
    app_keypad boolean
        Turn on/off application keypad mode on startup.
    app_cursor boolean
        Turn on/off application cursor key mode on startup.

MISC CONTEXT
    This context contains miscellaneous attributes that really didn't belong anywhere else.
    print_pipe command
        Set the command to which to pipe print requests (printscreen) to command.
    save_lines num
        Set the number of lines in the scrollback buffer to num.
    cut_chars string
        Define the characters used as word delimiters to the characters contained in string.
    min_anchor_size num
        Sets the minimum size, in pixels, of the scrollbar anchor (the part your mouse grabs onto and moves around) to num.
    border_width num
        Sets the width of the border between the text window and the X window to num.
    menu file
        Loads menubar code from file. The way to turn the menubar off is to not have this line in the config file, but passing some bogus filename (or /dev/null) as file will work too, though it may produce an error message.
    term_name name
        Use name as the $TERM environment variable, which controls which termcap/terminfo entry gets used. The default is xterm.
    exec command
        Rather than executing a shell, this will cause Eterm to spawn command as its child process. You can only have one of these!

KANJI CONTEXT
    This context contains attributes which are only used when Eterm is compiled with Kanji support. This context is not valid in a normal Eterm.
    font num font
        Set the numth kanji font (0-4) to font.
    encoding { eucj | sjis }
        Set the kanji encoding method.

BUILT-IN FUNCTIONS
    Eterm has a set of built-in functions which are available in config files. They can be used anywhere their output would be valid. Built-in functions are prefixed with the % character.
    %random(params)
        This function randomly chooses one of the words which compose params and returns that. "Words" are defined in shell terms, meaning that single or double quotes can be used to separate individual words of params which contain spaces. And you can even get creative and use a backquote-executed command to generate the list of words to pass to %random(). The default themes that come with Eterm demonstrate this technique, in fact. But keep in mind that random pixmaps aren't the only thing you can do with this function. You can randomize anything...colors, toggles, fonts, tinting...you name it!
    %exec(command)
        Executes command and returns the result. Basically it's exactly like using backquotes, except that it hasn't been implemented yet, so use backquotes instead. :-}
    %appname()
        Returns the application name, a hyphen, and the version number. Currently this is the string Eterm-0.8.9.
    %version()
        Returns the version number. Currently this is the string 0.8.9.

INCLUDES
    Eterm supports the %include file directive to allow for separation of the configuration information into separate files.
