EXAMPLES

24       Set ncid to use the page output module:
25            set ModName     ncid-page
26
27       Set  ncid  to format its date output in alternate form 1.  Assuming the
28       date separator is a "/", the display will be DD/MM/YYYY:
29           set AltDate     1
30
31       Set ncid to format its date output with hyphen (-) as  separator.   The
32       display will be MM-DD-YYYY.  If the date is in alternate form, the dis‐
33       play will be DD-MM-YYYY:
34           set DateSepar   "-"
35
36       Set ncid to format its date output with period  (.)  appended  to  year
37       (ordinal  numbers), when the period (.) is date separator.  If the date
38       is in alternate form, the display will be dd.mm.yyyy.
39           set YearDot     1
40
41       Set ncid to format its date output in alternate form  2.   The  display
42       will be: weekday month dd yyyy
43           set AltDate     2
44
45
46       Set ncid to add a dial prefix to the phone number sent to the server to
47       dial.  The dial prefix may be "9" or even "91" but a leading 1  can  be
48       set in the GUI instead, if the leading 1 is not always needed.
49           set DialPrefix=""
50
51       Set  the  number of characters to display a name in the GUI to 40.  The
52       range is from 20 to 50:
53           set nameWidth   40
54
55       Set ncid to tell the server to send the call  log,  only  used  in  the
56       NoGUI mode:
57           set CallLog     1
