+Velocity's runtime configuration is controlled by regular Java properties. There
is a set of default properties contained
+ in Velocity's jar, found in
+/src/java/org/apache/velocity/runtime/defaults/velocity.defaults, that Velocity
uses as it's configuration baseline. This ensures that Velocity will always have a
'correct' value
+for it's configuration and startup.

course.
+<P align="justify"> Any properties then specified at init() time will replace the
default values. This ensures that you only have to
+configure velocity with the properties that you need to change, and not worry about
the rest. Further, as we add more
+features and configuration capability, you don't have to change your configuration
files to suit - the Velocity engine will
+ always have default values.
