2# file is the default config file for general idle settings.
3#
4# When IDLE starts, it will look in
5# the following two sets of files, in order:
6#
7# default configuration
8# ---------------------
9# config-main.def the default general config file
10# config-extensions.def the default extension config file
11# config-highlight.def the default highlighting config file
12# config-keys.def the default keybinding config file
13#
14# user configuration
15# -------------------
16# ~/.idlerc/idle-main.cfg the user general config file
17# ~/.idlerc/idle-extensions.cfg the user extension config file
18# ~/.idlerc/idle-highlight.cfg the user highlighting config file
19# ~/.idlerc/idle-keys.cfg the user keybinding config file
Steven M. Gavac11ccf32001-09-24 09:43:17 +000020#
21# Any options the user saves through the config dialog will be saved to
22# the relevant user config file. Reverting any general setting to the
23# default causes that entry to be wiped from the user file and re-read
24# from the default file. User highlighting themes or keybinding sets are
25# retained unless specifically deleted within the config dialog. Choosing
26# one of the default themes or keysets just applies the relevant settings
27# from the default file.

52#additional help sources, must be viewable by an html browser
53#will be listed on the Help/Other Help menu
54#option names are the sequence number of the option
55#values take the form: menu item;/path/to/help/source
56#obviously you can't use a semi-colon in a menu item or path and the path will
57#be platform specific because of path separators, drive specs etc.
58#eg.:
59#1= My Extra Help Source;/usr/share/doc/foo/index.html
60#2= Another Help Source;/path/to/another.html
