NAME

7       plowshare.conf - Configuration file for Plowshare
8
9

DESCRIPTION

11       Plowshare  (plowdown,  plowup,  plowdel,  plowlist or plowprobe) uses a
12       configuration file called plowshare.conf for its  initial  setup.  This
13       configuration  file  is searched for in the following places when plow‐
14       share is started:
15
16           ~/.config/plowshare/plowshare.conf
17           /etc/plowshare.conf
18
19       Note: Usage of configuration file can be disabled using  --no-plowshar‐
20       erc  command-line  option.  There  is also --plowsharerc=FILE option to
21       specify an alternate configuration file.

FILE FORMAT

25       plowshare.conf file uses an INI-style format. It  is  composed  of  six
26       sections  which  may  be present in any order. Each section may contain
27       lines of the form:
28
29           [General]
30               token = value
31               ...
32           [Plowdown]
33               token = value
34               ...
35           [Plowup]
36               token = value
37               ...
38           [Plowdel]
39               token = value
40               ...
41           [Plowlist]
42               token = value
43               ...
44           [Plowprobe]
45               token = value
46               ...
47
48           # this is a comment
49
50       Notes:
51
52       · Sections are unordered.
53
54       · Blank lines or lines  beginning  with  a  hash  character  ('#')  are
55         treated as comments and ignored.
56
57       · Whitespace  before  and after a token or value is ignored (although a
58         value can contain whitespace within).
59
60       · Double quoting value is optional. Use them to  preserve  leading  and
61         trailing whitespace.
62
63       Valid  tokens are always lowercase.  Names are long-option command-line
64       arguments of plowshare. For example: temp-directory for plowdown.   For
65       modules  options, tokens are prepended by module name and a slash char‐
66       acter. For example: rapidgator/auth  (short-option  are  also  possible
67       here).
68
69       For  values,  no  backslash  interpretation  is made. "\t" is a regular
70       string with two characters, it is not a tab character.
71
72       Options in general section prevail over Plow* section. Options given on
73       the command line prevail over configuration file options.
