   > > I created a `~/repos/clouseau/log4j.properties` based on the one that 
the `configure` script creates, and this time it worked!

   > @jaydoane did you feel it inconvenient that you had to create those files 
yourself? I am asking because I have been pondering about having the 
`clouseau.ini` and `log4j.properties` files automatically created by 
`./dev/run` when they are missing. My motivation is that users should not peek 
into the sources to figure out what kind of files are needed. But provide them 
with sane defaults that they can tune further. I am a bit unsure though if that 
is over-engineering here.
   
   It was moderately inconvenient, _but_ the error messages were clear enough 
to make progress. I don't think it's necessarily over-engineering to generate 
those files, however. Maybe output some text that they are being generated if 
they are missing?
