Linux (dumb) question

[Hannotje]

I've been searching arround, but i was unable to find openttd.cfg.. but somehow the settings are saved.
Im using ubuntu for hosting, it was a long time i've used linux so i slightly forgotten most of its functions..

The readme has a complete section about the directory where it stores openttd.cfg.

Okay, close / delete it.

Like windows they invented hidden folders, thats why i couldnt find it with the search function (omg..)

Since unix exists much longer than windows, it is more likely the other way around.

Also you can blame that failure on your search tool, apparently it is too 'user friendly' for any real searches.
If you had used the standard unix 'find' command, you would have found the file:

Code: Select all

$ find $HOME -name openttd.cfg

" lets say when redhat was still hot (about 9 a 10 years ago ?)"

Thanks anyway
