Question on binds

[TonkaTruck]

Alright, I am currently using Basilisco's bind .cfg file and I really want to change it to my uses and such.

I tried making my own .cfg file by typing in the filepaths and such in hopes of getting it right and copied this into it:

bind 1 "buy ammo"
bind 2 "sell weapons;buy chaingun; itemact chaingun;class level3"
bind 3 "sell larmour; sell helmet; sell battpack; sell jetpack; buy bsuit"


bind ALT "boost"
bind CTRL "+movedown"
bind j "itemtoggle jetpack"
bind g "itemact gren"

//Team messages
bind F3 "say_team ^3!!!^1GRENADE^3!!!"
bind F4 "say_team ^3!!!^1INCOMING^3!!!"
bind F5 "say_team ^3Defend Base!"
bind F6 "say_team ^3Attack NOW!!"
bind F7 "say_team ^3Get Ready to attack in 1 minute!"
bind F8 "say_team ^3REACTOR/OM DOWN!"

//Quick Join
bind F9 "team aliens"
bind F10 "team humans"

//Clear screenshot
bind F12 "cg_drawgun 0; cg_draw2d 0; wait 25; screenshotjpeg; cg_drawgun 1; cg_draw2d 1"

//Demo
bind DEL "set g_synchronousClients 1; record"
bind END "stoprecord; set g_synchronousClients 0"

Well, would this work?
Also, how do I turn the previous bind file off and turn this particular one on.

If you can, make this into a proper .cfg file for me when you can.

1st, put the file in tremulous/base folder
2nd, name it "autoexec.cfg" to run it automatically when you run the game, otherwise, you will need to type a command like /name.cfg, i don't emember of this command :/
3rd, encode the file in 'UTF-8' with a software like notpad++


(texts are in french i can't do better :/)

Should I mention I run Win98, not XP or some new fangled system?
And last time I checked, You can't do any encoding with a .txt document.

[bidubida]

Well, i copied, pasted and encoded.

Not here too
DON'T spread any myths about UTF-8

Using Notepad w/o UTF-8 is fully sufficient

I don't know.. but frankly NOTEPAD++ IS AWESOME YOU SHOULD HAVE IT ANYWAY! (notepad can encode on XP)

"Would this work" - Why don't you find out?
"How do I turn the previous off and this one on?" - Rename the old one to something like bak-autogen.cfg and name this one autogen.cfg ...


a cfg file is a text file.... a proper cfg file is a text file.... i'm not even sure the encoding really matters because i'm pretty sure i opened mine up and edited it with notepad and didn't bother to check the encoding and my binds work dandy.

I think the answer had more to do with 'exec' than text encoding...
