.TH mycron.conf 5 "" "" "MYCRON CONFIGURATION FILE FORMAT"
.SH NAME
mycron.conf \- configuration files syntax and usage explaination

.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBmycron\fRs configuration is always user controlled and defaults to the most useful/common values.

.SH LOCATION
The configuration file has to be stored at \fB${HOME}/.config/mycron/mycron.conf\fR for \fBmycron\fR to recognize it.

.SH EXAMPLE
Currently there can only the used editor be set. By default the environment variable \fB$VISUAL\fR will be used. Change that in the configuration file as needed.
.PP
.nf
.RS
[default]
editor = vim
.RE
.fi
.PP
The example changes the crontab editing program to \fBvim\fR and makes mycron using it for editing the crontab instead of \fB$VISUAL\fR. Maybe you need to add the \fBDISPLAY\fB environment variable to run GUI tools for editing the crontab.
.PP
You can always manually edit the crontab by opening \fB${HOME}/.config/mycron/mycron.crontab\fR in an editor of your choice.

.SH FUTURE
It is planned to extend the functionality of the configuration file.
