how to edit the Config Files

The suggested way to edit Configuration files is by using WinSCP. However, if you need to edit files in the console you need to use vim.

• Open a console
• go to cd /opt/fts.venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/FreeTAKServer-UI/app
• type ls to see the list of files
• type vim __init__.py
• begin insert mode by typing 'i'.
• insert your edits
• leave insert mode by pressing the Esc key.
• write and quit by entering either :wq! or :x! (both do the same thing)
  • starting command mode is via :
  • hit ENTER (to save and exit)
