Ok, I looked now deeper into the config code. You need either system
wide ewl config file or a user config file to run ewl.
The system wide file is located under what you defined by ./configure
with --sysconfdir plus "/ewl". Default is [PREFIX/etc]/ewl. You can
overwrite this value by defining the env. variable EWL_SYSCONF_DIR or by
defining the env. variable EWL_PREFIX_DIR then it becomes
EWL_PREFIX_DIR/etc/ewl.
The user config dir is located under ${home}/.ewl/config/. If The HOME
env. does not exists then /tmp/ is used.
The config file itself is called ewl.cfg.
And there is a special hack for developers. If the env. var. "srcdir" is
defined then the system file is looked up under
"srcdir"/../../data/config/. This probably only works if you do not
install it and call the fake script in the build dir, e.g.
ewl/src/bin/ewl_test, then this variable will be defined.
Puh, I think I covered now all possible combinations. At the moment ewl
insists to have at least one config file. This can maybe be changed, but
I see no reason for this with out any good argument. So please check the
given files if you have a config file there.
