</configuration>
Parameter Default value Description
appName Manasource Application full name
appShort Mana Application short name
appIcon - Client icon file to load at startup. Note that the filename given has no extension. This is because the file loaded depends on the OS:
For instance, with the `icons/mana` value, the `icons/mana.png` file will be loaded on Linux/Unices/BSD systems, and the `icons/mana.ico` will be loaded on Windows systems.
**Windows:** The .ico file must be 64x64 pixels wide.
**Mac:** Currently, mac .icns files can only be loaded through the configuration of the `Info.plist` file present in the source root directory of the client.
loginMusic - Music played at client startup
onlineServerList http://manasource.org/serverlist.xml The [serverlist.xml](serverlist.xml.md) file downloaded by the client at startup to get the server list.

defaultPort 9601 Default server port to connect to, when not specified in [serverlist.xml](serverlist.xml.md).
defaultServerType tmwathena Default protocol type used by servers, when not specified in [serverlist.xml](serverlist.xml.md).

N.B.: The branding parameters are overriden by other options given on the command line. For instance: $./mana --port 8741 branding.mana This application call will set the default port to 8741, and not the value given in the branding.mana file.
