#
# Foremost configuration file
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# The configuration file is used to control what types of files foremost
# searches for. A sample configuration file, foremost.conf, is included with
# this distribution. For each file type, the configuration file describes
# the file's extension, whether the header and footer are case sensitive,
# the maximum file size, and the header and footer for the file. The footer
# field is optional, but header, size, case sensitivity, and extension are
# not!
#
# Any line that begins with a '#' is considered a comment and ignored. Thus,
# to skip a file type just put a '#' at the beginning of that line
#
# Headers and footers are decoded before use. To specify a value in
# hexadecimal use \x[0-f][0-f], and for octal use \[0-3][0-7][0-7]. Spaces
# can be represented by \s. Example: "\x4F\123\I\sCCI" decodes to "OSI CCI".
#
# To match any single character (aka a wildcard) use a '?'. If you need to
# search for the '?' character, you will need to change the 'wildcard' line
# *and* every occurrence of the old wildcard character in the configuration
# file. Don't forget those hex and octal values! '?' is equal to 0x3f and
# \063.
#
# If you would like to extract files without an extension enter the value
# "NONE" in the extension column (note: you can change the value of this
# "no suffix" flag by setting the variable FOREMOST_NOEXTENSION_SUFFIX
# in foremost.h and recompiling).
#
# The REVERSE keyword after a footer instructs foremost to search backwards
# starting from [size] bytes in the extraction buffer and working towards the
# beginning. This is useful for files like PDF's that have multiple copies of
# the footer throughout the file. When using the REVERSE keyword you will
# extract bytes from the header to the LAST occurence of your footer within the
# window determined by the [size] of your extraction.
#
# The NEXT keyword after a footer instructs foremost to search forwards for data
# that starts with the header provided and terminates or is followed by data in
# the footer -- the footer data is not included in the output. The data in the
# footer, when used with the NEXT keyword effectively allows you to search for
# data that you know for sure should not be in the output file. This method for
# example, lets you search for two 'starting' headers in a document that doesn't
# have a good ending footer and you can't say exactly what the footer is, but
# you know if you see another header, that should end the search and an output
# file should be written.
# To redefine the wildcard character, change the setting below and all
# occurances in the formost.conf file.
#
#wildcard ?
# case size header footer
#extension sensitive
#
#---------------------------------------------------------------------
# EXAMPLE WITH NO SUFFIX
#---------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# Here is an example of how to use the no extension option. Any files
# containing the string "FOREMOST" would be extracted to a file without
# an extension (eg: 00000000,00000001)
# NONE y 1000 FOREMOST
