Well I think there is a lot of good examples of configuration files, so I
definitely want to use it.

Yes.  It should be auto-updating/re-compiling once an hour.

Hrmmmm.  Perhaps this is better in an appendix as you suggest.  Seemed like
something that would fit into chapter 3, but this might be a bit complicated
for a new users first go at these files.  Yours is a bit more complicated

I thought a Euro was worth *more* than an American dollar?
