NAME¶
nicotine-import-winconfig - import configuration from the Windows soulseek
client
SYNOPSIS¶
nicotine-import-winconfig [
OPTIONS]
old-config-file
DESCRIPTION¶
This manual page documents briefly the
nicotine-import-winconfig command.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original
program does not have a manual page.
nicotine-import-winconfig is a program to import your queue, user list,
password information, auto-joined chatrooms, banlist, and user information
from the Windows SoulSeek configuration.
USAGE¶
A typical invocation would be :
nicotine-import-winconfig "/mnt/win9x/Program Files/SoulSeek"
The program should be run when nicotine is
not running. It will add the
information (download queue, userlist, password info, etc.) to the existing
configuration or write a new configuration from scratch when no configuration
exists.
FILES¶
- $HOME/.nicotine/config
- The per-user configuration file for nicotine(1) will
be overwritten.
You might want to back up the file first, but it should not be necessary. A
different config file can be chosen using the
--config flag.
- configfile-userinfo.ext
- In case there's an image included in the Windows SoulSeek
userinfo, the image will be extracted and written to that file, where
configfile is the path to your nicotine configuration file, and
ext is the appropriate file extension for the image type.
OPTIONS¶
When you don't want to import all configuration options, you can choose what to
import using command line flags.
- -c file | --config=file
- Use a non-default nicotine configuration file to write
to.
- -q | --queue
- Import the queue.
- -u | --userlist
- Import the userlist.
- -l | --login
- Import the login information.
- -C | --chatrooms
- Import the list of autojoined chatrooms.
- -b | --banned
- Import the list of banned users.
- -i | --userinfo
- Import the user information and the image.
- -h | --help
- Print the summary of command line options and exit.
TIPS¶
It is possible to share the download directory between platforms. Nicotine can
even continue downloads that started using the Windows client.
Of course, the download directories should be the same for nicotine and Windows,
e.g. if your Windows sharing directory is
F:\slsk_in and your F drive
is mounted on
/mnt/media, then you must set your download directory to
/mnt/media/slsk_in.
