Can I add icons and sounds for different RIP BBSes and RIP door games to SyncTERM?

I know my Syncterm files are in ~/.syncterm, but I'm trying to add the extras a BBS can allow users to download so they load immediately, and/or play music that the sysop supplies.

You can currently put them in: ~/.syncterm/cache/<BBS Name>, but that location may change in the future.

What would be the scenerio for Windows users as I don't think we have a cache directory or setting for a dial-up entry to provide a directory name for a bbs where those files would be saved.

There is a cache directory on Windows, but I'm not sure what it actually maps to... It's FOLDERID_InternetCache/SyncTERM/<bbs name=""></bbs>

The BBS name comes from the SyncTERM list entry (what you see when you open the program).

The cache directory is now available from inside the program. RIP files need to be in a RIP subdirectory in there.
