===== Globals =====

==== Use global variables for display ====
Global variables are available in column display and colour strings.
==== Use global variables when sorting by column ====
Global variables are available when sorting by column. Note: if your global string is slow to process, this will severely slow down sorting. Optimise your global string for best results.
==== Enable legacy support for globals (Columns Playlist only) ====
Allows the use of the older syntax for the global variables script, which was used in foobar2000 0.8.x.
==== Make date info available ====
Makes %_system_year%, %_system_day%, %_system_month%, %_system_day_of_week%, %_system_hour% available in global variables string.
==== Tab: Variables ====
Enter your global variables string here. See the [[columns_ui:config:global_variables|global variables]] page for information on its format.
==== Tab: Style ====
Enter your global [[columns_ui:config:colour_string|Style script]] here. This script wil be the default for all columns.
