Ubuntu Manpage: default.cfg - Crispy Doom configuration file

NAME

       default.cfg - Crispy Doom configuration file

DESCRIPTION

       default.cfg  is  the configuration file for crispy-doom(6).  The configuration options stored in the file
       are the same as those stored in the original DOS Vanilla Doom.  Extra Crispy  Doom-specific  options  are
       stored in a separate configuration file, crispy-doom.cfg.

       default.cfg  is  normally stored in the user's home directory, as ~/.local/share/crispy-doom/default.cfg.
       The path can be overridden using the XDG_DATA_HOME environment  variable  (see  the  XDG  Base  Directory
       Specification).

       The crispy-doom-setup(6) tool provides a simple to use front-end for editing default.cfg.

FILE FORMAT

       The  file is a plain-text file, consisting of a list of configuration options and their values, separated
       by whitespace.  Each option is stored on a separate line.  Options have different types;  an  option  may
       have  either an integer, floating point or string value.  If the option is of a string type, the value is
       surrounded by quotes (").

       For example:

              integer_value                1
              integer_value2               1
              floating_point_value         4.2
              string_value                 "hello world"

       Invalid lines or comments in the file will be ignored, but it is advisable not to put them in  the  file;
       the  file  is  rewritten from scratch every time the game exits, so any invalid lines or comments will be
       lost.

       Some options are used for keyboard key bindings; these  are  stored  as  integer  values  containing  the
       keyboard  scan  code of the key to be bound to.  Boolean values are also stored as integers, with a value
       of zero usually indicating "false" and a non-zero value indicating "true".
