Configuration

IRCO uses INI files as its configuration format. Each time an IRCO command is run, configuration is loaded from different places:

  • /etc/irco/irco.ini
  • ~/.irco.ini
  • irco.ini in the directory where the command is executed

Values defined in following files overwrite the same directives defined in previous files.

Initialization on OS X

To create a new user-specific configuration file, issue the following commands:

cd ~
touch .irco.ini
open -a TextEdit .irco.ini

At this point, the TextEdit application opens up with an empty configuration file. Edit the file to your liking, save and close the application.
