+== Ignore Case ==
+If 'true', Mystic will do a case insensitive filename scan on case sensitive operating systems.  IE if the .TIC file has a filename of "TEST.ZIP" but the actual filename on disk is "test.zip" Mystic will toss test.zip even though technically they are not the same filename.  Note that enabling this will cause some additional disk scanning during tossing to search for files that have case variations.
+  ignore_case = true
+== Automatically Create New File Bases ==
+If 'true', then Mystic will attempt to auto create file bases when a file is found for an Area that does not already exist.  If an unknown file is found and this option is disabled, the file will be considered a failure, and will be ignored/moved to the 'bad' directory (if enabled)
+This setting uses a Boolean True or False switch.
+  auto_create = true
+== Define Directory Prefix ==
+The directory prefix for auto-created file bases.
+This will be used with the areatag appended onto it, so for example if prefix was set to dir_prefix=c:\bbs\files\fdn_ and the areatag was "nodelist", Mystic would create and the use path c:\bbs\files\fdn_nodelist\ and the datafile would be fdn_nodelist
+  dir_prefix = c:\mystic\files\fdn_
+You then set a number of options as the **default values** MUTIL will apply when a file base is auto-created:
+  ; Display file to use
+  dispfile     =
+  ; Template to use
+  template     = ansiflst
+  ; ACS to see the file base
+  acs_list       = s10
+  ; ACS to use FTP to access the file base
+  acs_ftp        = s10
+  ; ACS to download files in the file base
+  acs_download   = s20
+  ; ACS to upload files to the file base
+  acs_upload     = s50
+  ; ACS to hatch files from the file base to connected nodes
+  acs_hatch      = s50
+  ; ACS to use the file base with sysop access
+  acs_sysop      = s255
+  ; true/false type values 0=false 1=true (newscan 2=forced)
+  ; are downloads from this base 'free' or do they count against a d/load quota?
+  free_files    = 0
+  ; should Mystic display the uploader of files in this base?
+  show_uploader = 1
+  ; should Mystic include files in this base as part of a 'new files' scan?
+  new_scan      = 1
+== Define Specific Auto-Create Settings Based On Sender ==
+If you want to create settings specific to certain node addresses that send your system messages - you can!
+For example, if you wanted to auto create bases that were linked to your fsxNet feed using the fsxNet HUB address of 21:1/100 , you have defined fsxNet as file group #1 in the File Group Editor, you want non-validated users (s10) to see files in the base, but only validated users (s20) to be able to download. You would set something like the following:
+:1/100_bad_dir       = c:\mystic\files\badfile_fsxnet\
+:1/100_dir_prefix    = c:\mystic\files\fsxnet_
+:1/100_allow_replace = true
+:1/100_acs_list      = s10z1
+:1/100_acs_ftp       = s20z1
+:1/100_acs_download  = s20z1
+:1/100_acs_upload    = s255z1
+:1/100_acs_hatch     = s255z1
+:1/100_acs_sysop     = s255z1
