 SIEGE.CONFIG(1)                Siege v3.1.4                 SIEGE.CONFIG(1)

 NAME
      siege.config - builds a .siegerc template in the user's home
      directory.

 INTRODUCTION
      With the release of version 2.00, siege supports a settings
      configuration file to permanently store runtime variables.  The
      settings in this file are the default values for every siege
      invocation. They are superceded by command line options, so if the
      configuration file has a default "times = 10" and the user invokes
      siege with -t1000, then siege will run 1000 times and not 10.  When
      siege is installed on a system, a .siegerc file is installed in the
      installing user's home directory.  This means that only the user who
      installed siege has a configuration file.  The siege.config utility
      was designed to install a .siegerc file in the home directory of the
      user who invoked it. This makes it possible to have customized siege
      configuration on a per user basis.

 INVOCATION
      The format for invoking siege.config is this:
      siege.config [no arguments]
