 ===== Configuration file =====
@@ Line 9: / Line 48: @@
   * This file is automatically created during Locus Map first start (if it does not exist from its previous installation). Data are loaded at start and stored back to file in the end, so even if this file allows changing some settings that are also changeable in the application, settings will not be lost.
+<WRAP center round info>
+As this method has become obsolete and is quite user unfriendly, settings included in this configuration file are going to be moved gradually to the **Expert settings** section above.
