Configuration¶

Each client implementation of the Open eCard App uses a common base set of configuration options and possibly additional client specific settings. The clients provide their own configuration dialogs that are appropriate for the platform or operating system they are running on.

In the rest of this section the settings common to all client implementations are defined and explained. The sections afterwards describe the client specific settings as well as the UIs that provide a more user friendly way to modify these settings.

List of Common Settings¶

The Open eCard App loads and saves all its settings to a Java style property file. This file is user specific and can be found under the path $HOME/.openecard/openecard.properties. Besides this config file, the $.openecard$ directory may contain other client or plugin specific files, like log settings or log files.
