Setup

For the initial setup just drag the Minecaster Jar-File in your "plugins" folder and start/reload your server. The plugin will atuomatically create it's folder and the configuration file.
Unlike other plugins MineCaster has a GUI for configuration purposes so you needn't change the conrfig.xml. Just open the GUI by typing "/minecaster gui" or "/mc gui". There are two tabs one tab for general settings like the announcement interval and one for the message-configuration.

General Setup

Interval: The time in seconds between announcements
Prefix: The word in front of every announcement. It can contain ColorCodes.
