Doc or Examples Directory
« on: November 16, 2006, 09:27:13 pm »
In SVN as well as the download archives (.zip .tar.gz) the blank Bot.conf and MySQL.conf should be moved to an examples/ or doc/ directory so that bot upgrades do not clobber the customized configurations.

To me it's not a huge deal as I have nightly backups, but n00bs might not like clobbering their configuration files as the probably lost their MySQL login info a few minutes after they set it up. :)

Leave an empty conf directory in svn and the archives.

Edit:
Also, php.ini seems to belong with the PHP bundle, not the bot files.

Valid points.

I was actually planning on porting Budabot's configure script, and also redoing config and settings budabot style.
In the process Bot.conf would be renamed Bot.conf.dist to prevent it from overwriting anything.
