INTRODUCTION

9       With  the release of version 2.00, siege supports a settings configura‐
10       tion file to permanently store runtime variables.  The settings in this
11       file  are  the  default  values  for  every  siege invocation. They are
12       superceded by command line options, so if the configuration file has  a
13       default "times = 10" and the user invokes siege with -t1000, then siege
14       will run 1000 times and not 10.
15
16       When siege is installed on a system, a .siegerc file  is  installed  in
17       the  installing  user's  home directory.  This means that only the user
18       who installed siege has a configuration file.  The siege.config utility
19       was  designed  to  install a .siegerc file in the home directory of the
20       user who invoked it. This makes it possible to  have  customized  siege
21       configuration on a per user basis.

INVOCATION

24       The format for invoking siege.config is this:
25       siege.config [no arguments]
