=head1 DESCRIPTION

-d path

These options are for using vfu in partial non-interactive mode.
example: vfu -d /usr/local -i
=head1 CONFIGURATION
B<vfu>
configuration is divided in two parts (files):
B<vfu.conf>
This file contains configuration for external editor and pager, favorite
directories, file-type colorization. This is plain text file which format
is described below. vfu only reads vfu.conf, it never writes in it!
B<vfu.options>
This file contains all Options/Toggles which can be changed from inside
vfu -- Options menu. vfu.options is binary file and is overwritten on
vfu exit or on change option event! Deleting this file will reset vfu
toggles to default values. vfu.options is not portable between vfu
versions!
=head2 Location of vfu.conf
B<vfu.conf> can be placed as any of:
$HOME/.vfu/vfu.conf
$HOME/$RC_PREFIX/vfu/vfu.conf (if $RC_PREFIX is exported)
/etc/vfu.conf
/usr/local/etc/vfu.conf
/usr/local/vfu.conf
=head2 Other files location
All other files including vfu.options are placed in:
$HOME/.vfu/
$HOME/$RC_PREFIX/vfu/
What is B<C<$RC_PREFIX>> and why to use it? Some more information for
this can be found in the B<CONFIG> file which is supplied with
B<vfu> package.
=head1 VFU.CONF
This is a sample copy of vfu.conf with appropriate comments:
=begin text
#include "vfu.conf"
=end text
=head1 DISTRIBUTION
It is supposed that only source packages will be distributed.
However sometimes binary packages will be released, but not often.
VFU packages are named in this way:
vfu-X.xx.src.tgz
source package for version X.xx
vfu-X.xx.bin.platform.tgz
binary package for version X.xx for `platform' platform
examples:
vfu-4.22.src.tgz
vfu-4.22.bin.linux.glibc.tgz
vfu-4.22.bin.linux.libc5.tgz
vfu-4.22.bin.dos.tgz
All packages are TAR+GZIP .tgz, bz2 and zip are available on request.
B<NOTE>:

contains some useful notes!
