<title>Cthulhu Preferences</title>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Cthulhu preferences allow you to customize functionality in <app>Cthulhu</app>
|
|
which applies to all applications. An example of an Cthulhu preference is
|
|
echo because echo is something that applies to all applications.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that Cthulhu preferences can be customized on an application-by-application
|
|
basis. For instance you can set the default echo to words and then
|
|
set the echo for Pidgin to be none. Having done so, <app>Cthulhu</app>
|
|
would always echo each word that you typed, unless you were in Pidgin.

<title>Application-Unique Preferences</title>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In contrast to Cthulhu preferences, there are application-unique preferences.
|
|
These preferences allow you to customize <app>Cthulhu</app> functionality
|
|
that only applies in certain environments, such as on web pages or in
|
|
chat applications. As a result, you will only find these options
|
|
available in the application-specific preferences dialogs and only for
|
|
those applications to which these options apply.
