#7 Index of all config variables
It would be very useful to have a document which lists
all the vesta.cfg setting in one place. It might be
sufficient to provide pointers to the man page where
each one is documented, rather than trying to describe
them all in one place.
There are even some config variables which are, at this
point, undocumented (such as
[TCP_sock]resolv_try_again_limit).
It would be really great if we had a way to
automatically keep the complete list of settings up to
date. It's tempting to thing that we could just grep
the source for all calls to VestaConfig::get*, but
there are some cases where the setting being looked up
isn't passed as string constants (see the functions
config_Text and config_int in src/ServerMain.C in
/vesta/vestasys.org/vesta/run_tool for one example).
Maybe we could come up with a comment syntax that could
be recognized and extracted by a tool for generating
the list.
