The Supervisor Dialog

The supervisor dialog is accessed via View→Supervisor from the m application. The supervisor properties determine the startup behaviour of m and the SMS control parameters (see also section * ()).

The individual properties are:

enabledSelect whether the supervisor should be enabled at all. Disable it if you don't like the idea of a supervisor process running in the background. Note that reenabling the supervisor may require rebooting the device to actually restart the process.
onbootSelect whether the m application starts automatically when the phone is turned on. For testing, set to once to only autostart once. To automatically restart m whenever it exits or crashes, select restart.
smsctrlSelect whether the m application can be controlled via SMS commands.
smskeyThe keyword prefix for all SMS commands. SMS not starting with this keyword are ignored and end up in the normal inbox.
smsnrThe last digits of the sender phone number which can control the m application via SMS. For instance, with smsnr=1234, the SMS from all phones with a number ending in 1234 can control m. If empty, anybody knowing smskey can control m and eventually the device.
