1 The configuration files is made up of sections. Each section starts
1 with a keyword identifying the section followed by a colon.  Then
1 follow variable assignments and flags. Variable assignments take the
1 following form:
1      name=value
1    Flags are lone keywords without an equal sign and value following
1 them.  A section either ends at the end of the file or where the next
1 section begins.

1    Lines starting with a hash (`#') are comments. Newline characters
1 are equivalent to whitespace (except where ending a comment). The
1 configuration file is case insensitive, except for item enclosed in
1 quotes (such as filenames).
