In the Files section...
$FGROOT/system.fgfsrc -- system wide configuration file in command line
format
$FGROOT/keyboard.xml -- key bindings
$FGROOT/joystick.xml -- joystick bindings
$FGROOT/preferences.xml -- system wide configuration file in XML format
$FGROOT/Aircraft/$AIRCRAFT/$AIRCRAFT.xml -- JSBsim aircraft parameters
$FGROOT/Aircraft/$AIRCRAFT/Panels/*.xml -- panel configuration
$FGROOT/Aircraft/$AIRCRAFT/Instruments/*.xml instrument configs
""/HUDS/*/*xml -- hud configs
""/materials -- texture usage config library
""/version -- base package compatibility test
""/webrun.bat -- windows browser launcher for help file

You'll probably want to include at least the ones in $FGROOT
At some point before the next release I'll add some predefined
aircraft.xml files. These have all the commandline switches used to
combine fdm/panel/what-have-you in XML format and are called with thw
--config option
