In the Pine resource file, any line starting with # is considered to be a comment line. Lines not beginning with # contain settings for configuration options using the format option=value[,value,...] All values are strings; quotes can be used around any value. If a value is absent, then the associated option is not set and a system-wide default setting, if there is one, will be used instead. For some options, only the values YES and NO are allowed. A line beginning with a space or tab is considered to be a continuation of the previous line.
