MCabber requires you to create a subdirectory .mcabber in your home

directory and to place a configuration file there.

An example mcabberrc was installed as part of the documentation.

To create a new mcabberrc based on the example mcabberrc, execute the

following commands:



  mkdir -p ~/.mcabber

  bzcat /usr/share/doc/mcabber*/mcabberrc.example.bz2 > ~/.mcabber/mcabberrc



Then edit ~/.mcabber/mcabberrc with your favorite editor.



See the CONFIGURATION FILE and FILES sections of the mcabber

manual page (section 1) for more information.



MCabber supports PGP encryption of messages. See README_PGP.txt for details.
