CONFIGURATION FILE

69       Vega Strike expects a  configuration  file  (  $HOME/.vegastrike/vegas‐
70       trike.config (~/.vegastrike/vegastrike.config) ), which can be modified
71       by running vssetup.  A simple illustration  of  how  to  adjust  vegas‐
72       trike.config  and  the  associated  keybindings  and  options is in the

74       rial listed above.
