16 <h1>libao Configuration Files
</h1>
19 When libao is
<a href=
"ao_initialize.html">initialized
</a>, it reads
20 two configuration files: the system-wide configuration in
21 "/etc/libao.conf" and the user configuration in
22 "~/.libao". Neither file needs to be present on the system for
23 libao to load. If both are present, the system configuration file is
24 read first, followed by the user configuration file. Options set in
25 the user configuration will take precedence.
28 Options are specified in these files in the form:
32 There can be no extra spaces anywhere on the line. Comment lines begin with a
<tt>#
</tt> symbol.
37 <dt><i>default_driver
</i></dt>
38 <dd>Set this equal to the short name of the driver you want the system to use by default. If this is not specified in any of the configuration files, the library will try to guess an appropriate driver to use.
