+ <title>Configuration Format</title>
+
+ <para>The configuration files contain a list of
+ <literal><replaceable>KEY</replaceable>=<replaceable>VALUE</replaceable></literal> environment
+ variable assignments, separated by newlines. The right hand side of these assignments may
+ reference previously defined environment variables, using the <literal>${OTHER_KEY}</literal>
+ and <literal>$OTHER_KEY</literal> format. It is also possible to use
+
+ <literal>${<replaceable>FOO</replaceable>:-<replaceable>DEFAULT_VALUE</replaceable>}</literal>
+ to expand in the same way as <literal>${<replaceable>FOO</replaceable>}</literal> unless the
+ expansion would be empty, in which case it expands to <replaceable>DEFAULT_VALUE</replaceable>,
+ and use
+ <literal>${<replaceable>FOO</replaceable>:+<replaceable>ALTERNATE_VALUE</replaceable>}</literal>
+ to expand to <replaceable>ALTERNATE_VALUE</replaceable> as long as
+ <literal>${<replaceable>FOO</replaceable>}</literal> would have expanded to a non-empty value.
+ No other elements of shell syntax are supported.</para>
+
+ <para>Each <replaceable>KEY</replaceable> must be a valid variable name. Empty lines
+ and lines beginning with the comment character <literal>#</literal> are ignored.</para>
