Revamped 'Managing Settings' sections. Merged the duplicative 'Manage settings' sections in chapter 5 and chapter 7 (the 'Manage settings' section in chapter 5 was in the wrong place anyway, as 'Manage settings' is not in the system submenu). Improved the organization of 7.3. Updated cross-references so that the description in chapter 7 can be easily referenced from the overview description contained in the 'Main Manual' chapter.

The configuration file has the \fname{.cfg} - extension and is used to store all of the user settings that are described - throughout this manual. - A configuration file may reside anywhere on the hard disk. Multiple - configuration files are permitted. So, for example, you could have - a \fname{car.cfg} file for the settings that you use while playing your - jukebox in your car, and a \fname{headphones.cfg} file to store the - settings that you use while listening to your \dap\ through headphones. - - The Rockbox configuration file is a plain text file, so once you use the - \setting{Write .cfg file} option to create the file, you can edit the file - on your computer using any text editor program. See - \reference{ref:config_file_options} for available settings. Configuration - files use the following formatting rules: - % - \begin{enumerate} - \item Each setting must be on a separate line. - \item Each line has the format ``setting: value''. - \item Values must be within the ranges specified in this manual for each - setting. - \item Lines starting with \# are ignored. This lets you write comments - into your configuration files. - \end{enumerate} - - Configuration files may be loaded using the \setting{Browse .cfg files} - option on the \setting{Manage Settings} menu. - - \note{Configuration files do not need to contain all of the Rockbox - options. You can create configuration files that change only certain - settings. So, for example, supppose you typically use the \dap at one - volume in the car, and another when using headphones. Further, - suppose you like to use an inverse LCD when you're in the car, and - a regular LCD setting when you're using headphones. You could create - configuration files that control only the volume and LCD settings. - Create a few different files with different settings, give each file - a different name (such as \fname{car.cfg}, \fname{headphones.cfg}, - etc.), and you can then use the \setting{Browse .cfg files} option - to quickly change settings.} - \end{description} |
