Configuration

Configuration overview

A few configuration parameters exist in CelestLab. They are used to set global properties such as how warning messages are handled or how the ECI frame is defined.

The configuration values are initially loaded from the config.txt file located in the CelestLab home directory. The values can then be retrieved and modified (See CL_configGet and CL_configSet).

If necessary it is possible to modify the config.txt file (select "Edit configuration file" in CelestLab's menu).
