<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id56">Configuration Files</a></h1>
<p>Configuration files are used for persistent customization; they can be
set once and take effect every time you use a front-end tool.
Configuration file settings override the built-in defaults, and
command-line options override all.</p>
<p>By default, Docutils checks the following places for configuration
files, in the following order:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li><tt class="docutils literal">/etc/docutils.conf</tt>: This is a system-wide configuration file,
applicable to all Docutils processing on the system.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">./docutils.conf</tt>: This is a project-specific configuration file,
located in the current directory. The Docutils front end has to be
executed from the directory containing this configuration file for
it to take effect (note that this may have nothing to do with the
location of the source files). Settings in the project-specific
configuration file will override corresponding settings in the
system-wide file.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">~/.docutils</span></tt>: This is a user-specific configuration file,
located in the user's home directory. Settings in this file will
override corresponding settings in both the system-wide and
project-specific configuration files.</li>
</ol>
<p>If more than one configuration file is found, all will be read but
later entries will override earlier ones. For example, a "stylesheet"
entry in a user-specific configuration file will override a
"stylesheet" entry in the system-wide file.</p>
<p>The default implicit config file paths can be overridden by the
<tt class="docutils literal">DOCUTILSCONFIG</tt> environment variable. <tt class="docutils literal">DOCUTILSCONFIG</tt> should
contain a colon-separated (semicolon-separated on Windows) sequence of
config file paths to search for; leave it empty to disable implicit
config files altogether. Tilde-expansion is performed on paths.
Paths are interpreted relative to the current working directory.
Empty path items are ignored.</p>
<p>In addition, a configuration file may be explicitly specified with the
"--config" command-line option. This configuration file is read after
the three implicit ones listed above (or the ones defined by the
<tt class="docutils literal">DOCUTILSCONFIG</tt> environment variable), and its entries will have
priority.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="configuration-file-syntax">
<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id57">Configuration File Syntax</a></h1>
<p>Configuration files are UTF-8-encoded text files. The
<a class="reference external" href="http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-ConfigParser.html">ConfigParser.py</a> module from <a class="reference external" href="http://www.python.org/">Python</a>'s standard library is used to
read them. From its documentation:</p>
<blockquote>
The configuration file consists of sections, lead by a "[section]"
header and followed by "name: value" entries, with continuations
in the style of <a class="reference external" href="http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc822.txt">RFC 822</a>; "name=value" is also accepted. Note
that leading whitespace is removed from values. ... Lines
beginning with "#" or ";" are ignored and may be used to provide
comments.</blockquote>
<div class="note">
<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p>
<p class="last">No format string interpolation is done.</p>
</div>
<p>Configuration file entry names correspond to internal runtime
settings. Underscores ("_") and hyphens ("-") can be used
interchangably in entry names; hyphens are automatically converted to
underscores.</p>
<p>For on/off switch settings (<span class="target" id="booleans">booleans</span>), the following values are
recognized:</p>
<table class="docutils field-list" frame="void" rules="none">
<col class="field-name" />
<col class="field-body" />
<tbody valign="top">
<tr class="field"><th class="field-name">On:</th><td class="field-body">"true", "yes", "on", "1"</td>

section. Any setting may be specified in any section, but only
settings from active sections will be used. Sections correspond to
Docutils components (module name or alias; section names are always in
lowercase letters). Each <a class="reference external" href="tools.html">Docutils application</a> uses a specific set
of components; corresponding configuration file sections are applied
when the application is used. Configuration sections are applied in
general-to-specific order, as follows:</p>
<ol class="arabic">
<li><p class="first"><a class="reference internal" href="#general">[general]</a></p>
</li>
<li><p class="first"><a class="reference internal" href="#parsers">[parsers]</a>, parser dependencies, and the section specific to the
Parser used ("[... parser]"). Currently, only <a class="reference internal" href="#restructuredtext-parser">[restructuredtext
parser]</a> is applicable.</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first"><a class="reference internal" href="#readers">[readers]</a>, reader dependencies, and the section specific to the
Reader used ("[... reader]"). For example, <a class="reference internal" href="#pep-reader">[pep reader]</a> depends
on <a class="reference internal" href="#standalone-reader">[standalone reader]</a>.</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first"><a class="reference internal" href="#writers">[writers]</a>, writer dependencies, and the section specific to the
Writer used ("[... writer]"). For example, <a class="reference internal" href="#pep-html-writer">[pep_html writer]</a>
depends on <a class="reference internal" href="#html4css1-writer">[html4css1 writer]</a>.</p>
</li>
<li><dl class="first docutils">
<dt><a class="reference internal" href="#applications">[applications]</a>, application dependencies, and the section</dt>
<dd><p class="first last">specific to the Application (front-end tool) in use
("[... application]").</p>
</dd>
</dl>
</li>
</ol>
<p>Since any setting may be specified in any section, this ordering
allows component- or application-specific overrides of earlier
settings. For example, there may be Reader-specific overrides of
general settings; Writer-specific overrides of Parser settings;
Application-specific overrides of Writer settings; and so on.</p>
<p>If multiple configuration files are applicable, the process is
completed (all sections are applied in the order given) for each one
before going on to the next. For example, a "[pep_html writer]
stylesheet" setting in an earlier configuration file would be
overridden by an "[html4css1 writer] stylesheet" setting in a later
file.</p>

<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id209">Old-Format Configuration Files</a></h1>
<p>Formerly, Docutils configuration files contained a single "[options]"
section only. This was found to be inflexible, and in August 2003
Docutils adopted the current component-based configuration file
sections as described above. Docutils will still recognize the old
"[options]" section, but complains with a deprecation warning.</p>
<p>To convert existing config files, the easiest way is to change the
section title: change "[options]" to "[general]". Most settings
haven't changed. The only ones to watch out for are these:</p>
