\section{Configurations Files}


By default, the configuration file is saved in, and loaded from:
%
\begin{itemize}
\item Windows: \verb#<windir>\scummvm.ini#
\item Unix: \verb#~/.scummvmrc#
\item Mac OS X: \verb#~/Library/Preferences/ScummVM Preferences#
\item Others: \verb#scummvm.ini# in the current directory
\end{itemize}
%
An example config file looks as follows:
%
\begin{verbatim}
