NAME
nipper.conf - Configuration file for Nipper.
DESCRIPTION
Nipper can be configured in three different ways. The first is through
the command line options, this will override the other two configura‐
tion methods. The second is through an external configuration file,
which is documented in this help document. Lastly, Nipper will fall
back on its built-in default configuration settings. The main nip‐
per.conf file is usually located at /etc/nipper.conf, though an alter‐
native configuration file can be specified as a command line parameter.
The configuration settings outlined below are case-insensitive. Fur‐
thermore, Options that require a yes/no type answer can also be
answered with true/false or on/off. Comment lines start with a # char‐
acter.
