The file format is OPTION=VALUE
Between the OPTION , the = and the VALUE are no spaces.
You can comment out any OPTION or completely remove the related setting line to use the default settings.
Please note that the directory specified in this setting must exist. When invoking iyf -h the usage message displayed contains information about the database directory iyf will use.
As long as iyf does not write the file index to a folder handled by DropBox or to a folder residing on a slow USB flash drive, the location of the database normally does not need to be changed.
Example: DATABASEDIR=c:\users\fred\databases\iyf
Default: DATABASEDIR=..\var\db\iyf
# # WA2LWinTools/etc/iyf.cfg - Configuration file for iyf # # [00] 29.06.2016 CWa Initial Version # DATABASEDIR=c:\users\fred\databases\iyf
