The SyncTERM "dialing directory" is stored in a pair of plain-text list files (in .ini format), both named syncterm.lst:

  1. A User List (unique for each computer user)
  2. A System List (shared among all users of the computer system)

A directory entry in the System List will be automatically copied to the User List when an entry is modified or "dialed".

When downloading a shared syncterm.lst file (e.g. from a web-site), it is recommended that you place that file in the System List location so as to not overwrite your User List.


Windows

On Windows, the User List is stored in
%APPDATA%\SyncTERM\
(example: C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\SyncTERM\)

while the System List is stored in
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\SyncTERM\
(example: C:\ProgramData\SyncTERM\)


*nix

On Unix-like OSes (e.g. FreeBSD, Linux), the User List is stored in
~/.syncterm/
(example: /home/YourName/.syncterm/)

while the System List is stored in
/usr/local/etc/


macOS

On macOS, the User List is stored in
~/Library/Preferences/SyncTERM/
(example: /Users/YourName/Preferences/SyncTERM/)

while the System List is stored in
/Library/Preferences/SyncTERM/
