Free Subliminal Text - Config File Format

Configuration

FSTConfig.xml controls the behaviour of FST and the messages it displays. The file can be changed with any text editor, such as Notepad or TextEdit. If you know nothing about xml, just change the message lines to what you want. You can safety add or delete message lines, just make sure they go between the start and finish fst tags.
