- The 'dmapedit.ini' file controls the default setting of DMapEdit. This
- file will be used if it is either located in the current directory, or
- the same directory as 'dmapedit.exe'. It will use the one in the
- current directory, if both are present. So, it is possible to have
- different setups in different directories.
-
- Listed below are the different variables that you can set, along with
- the valid settings, if any. The format looks like this:
-
- variable=[settings]
-
- If no settings are shown, then the setting isn't checked, and you the
- user should have sure that it is correct. Otherwise, your setting much
- match one of those shown. Each setting is seperated by a ',' or a range
- of settings shown when seperated with a '-'.

-
- doom path=
-
- The path to doom's IWAD. You can use '/' or '\' in all paths. Note that

- backup=[yes, no]

- DMapEdit makes a backup of any PWAD you try to save over. If you set

- saved the new PWAD. This can help save some disk space, if you have a lot
- of pwads around. Otherwise, it is recommended to set backup to yes. If

- name with the extension '.bak'.
