         directory. 
       * Modify the data\skware.cfg configuration file as per the section

         droped. 
       * Apply any changes you made the the old header/footer templates to
         the new template file http\skware\template\dayq\main.htm 
       * Finally you can delete the following files as they are no longer

            Quote</b></a> 
         
         
   





Configuration File

   The operation of the program is controlled by the configuration file. This
   configuration file is called skware.cfg and must be in your WildCat data
   directory (d:\wc5\data). This file is in the process of being setup so that
   it is shared by all of skWare's programs as the single source of
   configuration information. An example file has been shipped with the
   package called skware.cfg.dist which can be used as an example. 
   It is an 'ini' type file the contents for the [skdayquote] section are
   described in the following table.
