## 1. EXAMPLE CONFIGURATION FILE

    #
    # vdl_ew configuration file
    #
    # VDL under Earthworm is started by startstop, and given the commandline found in startstop.d
    # That's where vdl get's its cusomary command line arguments. The file here is read
    # by the "feedme" routines, which determine vdl's identity to earthworm, and what to feed to vdl.
    # VDL has been modified (7/2/99) to use SCN names rather than pin numbers.
