GENISOIMAGERC(5)	       File Formats Manual		GENISOIMAGERC(5)

NAME
     genisoimagerc - startup configuration file for genisoimage

DESCRIPTION
     genisoimage(1) searches for a configuration file in several places; it uses
     the  first one it is able to open.  First, if the GENISOIMAGERC environment
     variable is set, its value is used as the filename; likewise  for	the  MK-
     ISOFSRC  environment  variable.   Next,  genisoimage  looks for files named
     .genisoimagerc or .mkisofsrc, first in the current working directory,  then
     in  the user's home directory.  Next, it looks for /etc/genisoimagerc.  Fi-
     nally, it looks for a .genisoimagerc in the same directory  as  genisoimage
     itself is stored.

     The .genisoimagerc file contains lines of the form

	    TAG=value

     where TAG is one of the settings defined below.  The case of the tag is not
     significant.   All  settings have command-line equivalents; if the command-
     line parameter is specified, it takes priority over the configuration file.

     Blank lines and lines beginning with `#' are ignored.

CONFIGURATION SETTINGS

	    lent to the -abstract command-line option.

     APPI   The application identifier should describe the application that will
	    be on the disc.  There is space for 128 characters.   Equivalent  to
	    the -A command-line option.
