The document can then be retrieved with the get command, and the name of the file and its description will appear in the output of the index command. Normally, an administrative password is required to use the put command. The name of the file or directory that is created with the put command is governed by the conventions described in the "help admin_documents" document. To summarize, any file or directory name that does not begin with a leading slash, '/', will be created in the public section of the file space; any file or directory name that starts with a '/' will be created in the private section of the file space. The description, if supplied, should be an unpunctuated string of words separated by spaces. It will appear in the Subject header if the file is mailed to someone who uses the get command, or if the file is mailed as a result of the "replyfile" or "mailfile" directives of the access_rules configuration setting (see "help configset_access_rules" for more details). If the description is enclosed in quotes, the quotes will appear in the output of the index command and anywhere else the subject is displayed. In addition to the description, there are four pieces of information that are stored about each file. They are summarized in the following table: Data Default value ==== ============= content type text/plain character set ISO-8859-1 content transfer encoding 8bit language en If the default values do not correctly represent the document, they can be overridden with the "data" command mode. For example, to store a WWW page, you could use the following command: put-data LISTNAME /test.html text/html us-ascii 7bit en Web Page <<LLL <h2>Hello, World</h2> LLL The put-dir command may be used to create a directory (also called a folder). The put-dir command does not require any data or contents. Once a directory is created, files can be stored in that directory. Normally, if the parent directory of a new file or directory does not already exist, the put command will fail. If the "force" command mode is used, any missing parent directories will be created automatically. The put-delete command may be used to remove a file or an empty directory. The put-delete command does not require any data or contents. If the "force" command mode is also used to remove a directory, all of its contents will be removed as well. The contents of any file must be specified using a here document. For example, the following command creates a document called "test" in the top-level directory of the file space for the LISTNAME mailing list: put LISTNAME /test A test file <<FIN This is the first line of the file This is the second line! FIN See "help here_document" for more details on here documents. Any lines in the contents of the file that end in a backslash, '\', will be catenated with the following line. File names and descriptions are case-sensitive. Be sure to type upper and lower case letters exactly as you want them to be shown by the index command. List names are not case-sensitive. File and directory names are always relative to the top-level directory of the file space for a mailing list. As a result, the file names that you use in the put command will always be shorter than the real file or directory name on the computer that runs the Majordomo server. Site administrators can store files in the filespace of the DEFAULT list as a way of providing files to all lists and all users at once. This approach can be used to override the stock files that are supplied by Majordomo. See "help reply_files" and "help format_files" for a list of some of the stock files. Help files can be replaced by storing them in the "/help" directory of the GLOBAL pseudo-list. For example, the following command: put GLOBAL /help/emergency Crisis line <<LLL Contact majordomo-owner@example.com LLL would create an "emergency" help file that could be retrieved with the "help emergency" command. See Also: help access_variables help admin_documents help configset_access_rules (to restrict access to the put command) help error_files help format_files help get (to retrieve documents from the file space) help here_document help index (find out which files are available for "put") help newfaq (a shortcut way to put the file "/faq") help newinfo (a shortcut way to put the file "/info") help newintro (a shortcut way to put the file "/intro") help reply_files This is the "put" help document for Majordomo 2, version 0.1200401130. For a list of all help documents, send the following command: help topics in the body of a message to majordomo@lists.naaclub.org.
