-------------------
Configuration Files
-------------------

Configuration files are used for persistent customization; they can be
set once and take effect every time you use a front-end tool.
Configuration file settings override the built-in defaults, and
command-line options override all.

By default, Docutils checks the following places for configuration
files, in the following order:

1. ``/etc/docutils.conf``: This is a system-wide configuration file,
   applicable to all Docutils processing on the system.

2. ``./docutils.conf``: This is a project-specific configuration file,
   located in the current directory.  The Docutils front end has to be
   executed from the directory containing this configuration file for
   it to take effect (note that this may have nothing to do with the
   location of the source files).  Settings in the project-specific
   configuration file will override corresponding settings in the
   system-wide file.

3. ``~/.docutils``: This is a user-specific configuration file,
   located in the user's home directory.  Settings in this file will
   override corresponding settings in both the system-wide and
   project-specific configuration files.

If more than one configuration file is found, all will be read but
later entries will override earlier ones.  For example, a "stylesheet"
entry in a user-specific configuration file will override a
"stylesheet" entry in the system-wide file.

The default implicit config file paths can be overridden by the
``DOCUTILSCONFIG`` environment variable.  ``DOCUTILSCONFIG`` should
contain a colon-separated (semicolon-separated on Windows) sequence of
config file paths to search for; leave it empty to disable implicit
config files altogether.  Tilde-expansion is performed on paths.
Paths are interpreted relative to the current working directory.
Empty path items are ignored.

In addition, a configuration file may be explicitly specified with the
"--config" command-line option.  This configuration file is read after
the three implicit ones listed above (or the ones defined by the
``DOCUTILSCONFIG`` environment variable), and its entries will have
priority.


-------------------------
Configuration File Syntax
-------------------------

Configuration files are UTF-8-encoded text files.  The
ConfigParser.py_ module from Python_'s standard library is used to
read them.  From its documentation:

    The configuration file consists of sections, lead by a "[section]"
    header and followed by "name: value" entries, with continuations
    in the style of `RFC 822`_; "name=value" is also accepted.  Note
    that leading whitespace is removed from values.  ...  Lines
    beginning with "#" or ";" are ignored and may be used to provide
    comments.

.. Note:: No format string interpolation is done.

Configuration file entry names correspond to internal runtime
settings.  Underscores ("_") and hyphens ("-") can be used
interchangably in entry names; hyphens are automatically converted to
underscores.

For on/off switch settings (_`booleans`), the following values are
recognized:

:On: "true", "yes", "on", "1"
:Off: "false", "no", "off", "0", "" (no value)

.. _list:

List values can be comma- or colon-delimited.

strip_classes_, strip_elements_with_classes_, stylesheet, and
stylesheet_path use the comma as delimiter,
whitespace around list values is stripped. ::

    strip-classes: ham,eggs,
    strip-elements-with-classes: sugar, salt, flour
    stylesheet: html4css1.css,
                math.css,
                style with spaces.css
    stylesheet-path: ../styles/my.css, ../styles/funny.css

expose_internals_, ignore_ and prune_ use the colon as delimiter and do not
strip whitespace::

    expose_internals: b:c:d


Example
=======

This is the contents of the ``tools/docutils.conf`` configuration file
supplied with Docutils::

    # These entries affect all processing:
    [general]
    source-link: yes
    datestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M UTC
    generator: on

    # These entries affect HTML output:
    [html4css1 writer]
    # Required for docutils-update, the website build system:
    stylesheet-path: ../docutils/writers/html4css1/html4css1.css
    embed-stylesheet: no
    field-name-limit: 20

Individual configuration sections and settings are described in the
following section.


-------------------------------------
Configuration File Sections & Entries
-------------------------------------

Below are the Docutils runtime settings, listed by config file
section.  Any setting may be specified in any section, but only
settings from active sections will be used.  Sections correspond to
Docutils components (module name or alias; section names are always in
lowercase letters).  Each `Docutils application`_ uses a specific set
of components; corresponding configuration file sections are applied
when the application is used.  Configuration sections are applied in
general-to-specific order, as follows:

1. `[general]`_

2. `[parsers]`_, parser dependencies, and the section specific to the
   Parser used ("[... parser]").  Currently, only `[restructuredtext
   parser]`_ is applicable.

3. `[readers]`_, reader dependencies, and the section specific to the
   Reader used ("[... reader]").  For example, `[pep reader]`_ depends
   on `[standalone reader]`_.

4. `[writers]`_, writer dependencies, and the section specific to the
   Writer used ("[... writer]").  For example, `[pep_html writer]`_
   depends on `[html4css1 writer]`_.

5. `[applications]`_, application dependencies, and the section
    specific to the Application (front-end tool) in use
    ("[... application]").

Since any setting may be specified in any section, this ordering
allows component- or application-specific overrides of earlier
settings.  For example, there may be Reader-specific overrides of
general settings; Writer-specific overrides of Parser settings;
Application-specific overrides of Writer settings; and so on.

If multiple configuration files are applicable, the process is
completed (all sections are applied in the order given) for each one
before going on to the next.  For example, a "[pep_html writer]
stylesheet" setting in an earlier configuration file would be
overridden by an "[html4css1 writer] stylesheet" setting in a later
file.

Some knowledge of Python_ is assumed for some attributes.

[general]
=========

Settings in the "[general]" section are always applied.

auto_id_prefix
--------------

Prefix prepended to all auto-generated IDs generated within the
document, after id_prefix_.

Default: "id".
Options: ``--auto-id-prefix`` (hidden, intended mainly for programmatic use).

datestamp
---------

Include a time/datestamp in the document footer.  Contains a
format string for Python's ``time.strftime``.  See the `time
module documentation`__.

Default: None.
Options: ``--date, -d, --time, -t, --no-datestamp``.

Configuration file entry examples::

    # Equivalent to --date command-line option, results in
    # ISO 8601 extended format datestamp, e.g. "2001-12-21":
    datestamp: %Y-%m-%d

    # Equivalent to --time command-line option, results in
    # date/timestamp like "2001-12-21 18:43 UTC":
    datestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M UTC

    # Disables datestamp; equivalent to --no-datestamp:
    datestamp:

dump_pseudo_xml
---------------

At the end of processing, write the pseudo-XML representation of
the document to stderr.

Default: don't (None).
Options: ``--dump-pseudo-xml`` (hidden, for development use only).

dump_settings
-------------

At the end of processing, write all Docutils settings to stderr.

Default: don't (None).
Options: ``--dump-settings`` (hidden, for development use only).

dump_transforms
---------------

At the end of processing, write a list of all transforms applied
to the document to stderr.

Default: don't (None).
Options: ``--dump-transforms`` (hidden, for development use only).

error_encoding
--------------

The text encoding for error output.

Default: "ascii".  Options: ``--error-encoding, -e``.

----------------------------

The error handler for unencodable characters in error output.  See
output_encoding_error_handler_ for acceptable values.

Default: "backslashreplace"
Options: ``--error-encoding-error-handler, --error-encoding, -e``.

exit_status_level
-----------------

A system message level threshold; non-halting system messages at
or above this level will produce a non-zero exit status at normal
exit.  Exit status is the maximum system message level plus 10 (11
for INFO, etc.).

Default: disabled (5).  Options: ``--exit-status``.

expose_internals
----------------

List_ of internal attribues to expose as external attributes (with
"internal:" namespace prefix).  To specify multiple attributes in
configuration files, use colons to separate names; on the command
line, the option may be used more than once.

Default: don't (None).
Options: ``--expose-internal-attribute`` (hidden, for development use only).

footnote_backlinks
------------------

Default: off (None).  Options: ``--generator, -g, --no-generator``.

halt_level
----------

The threshold at or above which system messages are converted to
exceptions, halting execution immediately.  If `traceback`_ is set, the
exception will propagate; otherwise, Docutils will exit.

Default: severe (4).  Options: ``--halt, --strict``.

id_prefix
---------

Prefix prepended to all IDs generated within the document.  See also
auto_id_prefix_.

Default: "" (empty).
Options: ``--id-prefix`` (hidden, intended mainly for programmatic use).

input_encoding
--------------

The text encoding for input.

Default: auto-detect (None).  Options: ``--input-encoding, -i``.

input_encoding_error_handler
----------------------------

The error handler for undecodable characters in the input. Acceptable
values include:

strict
    Raise an exception in case of an encoding error.
replace
    Replace malformed data with the official Unicode replacement
    character, U+FFFD.
ignore
    Ignore malformed data and continue without further notice.

Acceptable values are the same as for the "error" parameter of
Python's ``unicode`` function; other values may be defined in
applications or in future versions of Python.

Default: "strict".
Options: ``--input-encoding-error-handler, --input-encoding, -i``.

language_code
-------------

Case-insensitive `language tag`_ as defined in `BCP 47`_.

Sets the document language, also used for localized directive and
role names as well as Docutils-generated text.

A typical language identifier consists of a 2-letter language code
from `ISO 639`_ (3-letter codes can be used if no 2-letter code
exists). The language identifier can have an optional subtag,
typically for variations based on country (from `ISO 3166`_
2-letter country codes).  Avoid subtags except where they add
useful distinguishing information. Examples of language tags
include "fr", "en-GB", "pt-br" (the same as "pt-BR"), and
"de-1901" (German with pre-1996 spelling).

The language of document parts can be specified with a
"language-<language tag>" `class attribute`_, e.g.
``.. class:: language-el-polyton`` for a quote in polytonic Greek.

Default: English ("en").  Options: ``--language, -l``.

.. _class attribute: ../ref/doctree.html#classes

output_encoding
---------------

The text encoding for output.

Default: "UTF-8".  Options: ``--output-encoding, -o``.

output_encoding_error_handler
-----------------------------

The error handler for unencodable characters in the output. Acceptable
values include:

strict
    Raise an exception in case of an encoding error.
replace
    Replace malformed data with a suitable replacement marker,
    such as "?".
ignore
    Ignore malformed data and continue without further notice.
xmlcharrefreplace
    Replace with the appropriate XML character reference, such as
    "``&#8224;``".
backslashreplace
    Replace with backslashed escape sequences, such as "``\u2020``".

Acceptable values are the same as for the "error" parameter of
Python's ``encode`` string method; other values may be defined in
applications or in future versions of Python.

Default: "strict".
Options: ``--output-encoding-error-handler, --output-encoding, -o``.

record_dependencies
-------------------

Path to a file where Docutils will write a list of files that were
required to generate the output, e.g. included files or embedded
stylesheets [#dependencies]_. [#pwd]_ The format is one path per
line with forward slashes as separator, the encoding is ``utf8``.

Set to ``-`` in order to write dependencies to stdout.

This option is particularly useful in conjunction with programs like
``make`` using ``Makefile`` rules like::

  ham.html: ham.txt $(shell cat hamdeps.txt)
    rst2html.py --record-dependencies=hamdeps.txt ham.txt ham.html

If the filesystem encoding differs from utf8, replace the ``cat``
command with a call to a converter, e.g.::

  $(shell iconv -f utf8 -t latin1 hamdeps.txt)

Default: None.  Option: ``--record-dependencies``.

report_level
------------

Report system messages at or higher than <level>:

1  info
2  warning
3  error
4  severe
5  none

Default: warning (2).
Options: ``--report, -r, --verbose, -v, --quiet, -q``.

sectnum_xform
-------------

Enable or disable automatic section numbering by Docutils
(docutils.transforms.parts.SectNum) associated with the `sectnum
directive`_.

If disabled, section numbers might be added to the output by the
renderer (e.g. LaTeX or via a CSS style definition).

Default: enabled (1).
Options: ``--section-numbering``, ``--no-section-numbering``.

.. _sectnum directive: ../ref/rst/directives.html#sectnum

source_link
-----------

Include a "View document source" link in the document footer.  URL will
be relative to the destination.

Default: don't (None).
Options: ``--source-link, -s, --no-source-link``.

source_url
----------

An explicit URL for a "View document source" link, used verbatim.

Default: compute if source_link (None).
Options: ``--source-url, --no-source-link``.

strict_visitor
--------------

When processing a document tree with the Visitor pattern, raise an
error if a writer does not support a node type listed as optional. For
transitional development use.

Default: disabled (None).
Option: ``--strict-visitor`` (hidden, for development use only).

strip_classes
-------------

Comma-separated list_ of "classes" attribute values to remove from all
elements in the document tree. The command line option may be used more
than once.

.. WARNING:: Potentially dangerous; use with caution.

Default: disabled (None).  Option: ``--strip-class``.

strip_comments
--------------

Enable the removal of comment elements from the document tree.

Default: disabled (None).
Options: ``--strip-comments``, ``--leave-comments``.

strip_elements_with_classes
---------------------------

Comma-separated list_ of "classes" attribute values;
matching elements are removed from the document tree.
The command line option may be used more than once.

.. WARNING:: Potentially dangerous; use with caution.

Default: disabled (None).  Option: ``--strip-element-with-class``.

title
-----

The document title as metadata, which does not become part of the
document body.  It overrides a document-supplied title.  For
example, in HTML output the metadata document title appears in the
title bar of the browser window.

Default: none.  Option: ``--title``.

toc_backlinks
-------------

Enable backlinks from section titles to table of contents entries
("entry"), to the top of the TOC ("top"), or disable ("none").

Default: "entry".
Options: ``--toc-entry-backlinks, --toc-top-backlinks, --no-toc-backlinks``.

traceback
---------

Enable Python tracebacks when halt-level system messages and other
exceptions occur.  Useful for debugging, and essential for issue
reports.  Exceptions are allowed to propagate, instead of being
caught and reported (in a user-friendly way) by Docutils.

Default: disabled (None) unless Docutils is run programmatically
using the `Publisher Interface`_.
Options: ``--traceback, --no-traceback``.

.. _Publisher Interface: ../api/publisher.html

warning_stream
--------------

Path to a file for the output of system messages (warnings) [#pwd]_.

Default: stderr (None).  Options: ``--warnings``.

=========

Docutils currently supports only one parser, for reStructuredText.


[restructuredtext parser]
-------------------------

file_insertion_enabled
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Enable or disable directives that insert the contents of external
files, such as the "include_" & "raw_".  A "warning" system
message (including the directive text) is inserted instead.  (See
also raw_enabled_ for another security-relevant setting.)

Default: enabled (1).
Options: ``--file-insertion-enabled, --no-file-insertion``.

  found" warning when Pygments is not installed.

Default: "long".  Option: ``--syntax-highlight``.

New in Docutils 0.9.

.. _Pygments: http://pygments.org/
.. _code: ../ref/rst/directives.html#code
.. _Pygments-generated stylesheets:
   http://pygments.org/docs/cmdline/#generating-styles

tab_width
~~~~~~~~~

Number of spaces for hard tab expansion.

Default: 8.  Options: ``--tab-width``.

trim_footnote_reference_space
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Remove spaces before footnote references.

Default: don't (None); may be overriden by a writer-specific
footnote_references__ default though.

__ `footnote_references [latex2e writer]`_


[readers]
=========


[standalone reader]
-------------------

docinfo_xform
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Enable or disable the bibliographic field list transform
(docutils.transforms.frontmatter.DocInfo).

Default: enabled (1).  Options: ``--no-doc-info``.

doctitle_xform

[pep reader]
------------

The `pep_references`_ and `rfc_references`_ settings
(`[restructuredtext parser]`_) are set on by default.


[python reader]
---------------

Not implemented.


[writers]
=========

[docutils_xml writer]
---------------------

.. Caution::

   * In Python versions older than 2.7.3 and 3.2.3, the newlines_ and
     indents_ options may adversely affect whitespace; use them only for
     reading convenience (see http://bugs.python.org/issue4147).

   * The XML declaration carries text encoding information, without which
     standard tools may be unable to read the generated XML.

doctype_declaration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Generate XML with a DOCTYPE declaration.

Default: do (1).  Options: ``--no-doctype``.

indents
~~~~~~~

Generate XML with indents and newlines.

Default: don't (None).  Options: ``--indents``.

newlines
~~~~~~~~

Generate XML with newlines before and after tags.

Default: don't (None).  Options: ``--newlines``.

.. _xml_declaration [docutils_xml writer]:

xml_declaration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Generate XML with an XML declaration.  Also defined for the
`HTML Writer`__.

Default: do (1).  Options: ``--no-xml-declaration``.

__ `xml_declaration [html4css1 writer]`_


[html4css1 writer]
------------------

.. _attribution [html4css1 writer]:

attribution
~~~~~~~~~~~

Format for block quote attributions: one of "dash" (em-dash
prefix), "parentheses"/"parens", or "none".  Also defined for the
`LaTeX Writer <attribution [latex2e writer]_>`__.

Default: "dash".  Options: ``--attribution``.

cloak_email_addresses
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Scramble email addresses to confuse harvesters.  In the reference
URI, the "@" will be replaced by %-escapes (as of RFC 1738).  In
the visible text (link text) of an email reference, the "@" and
all periods (".") will be surrounded by ``<span>`` tags.
Furthermore, HTML entities are used to encode these characters in
order to further complicate decoding the email address.  For
example, "abc@example.org" will be output as::

    <a class="reference" href="mailto:abc&#37;&#52;&#48;example&#46;org">
    abc<span>&#64;</span>example<span>&#46;</span>org</a>

.. Note:: While cloaking email addresses will have little to no
   impact on the rendering and usability of email links in most
   browsers, some browsers (e.g. the ``links`` browser) may decode
   cloaked email addresses incorrectly.

Default: don't cloak (None).  Option: ``--cloak-email-addresses``.

compact_lists
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Remove extra vertical whitespace between items of bullet lists and
enumerated lists, when list items are all "simple" (i.e., items
each contain one paragraph and/or one "simple" sublist only).  The
behaviour can be specified directly via "class" attributes (values
"compact" and "open") in the document.

Default: enabled (1).
Options: ``--compact-lists, --no-compact-lists``.

compact_field_lists
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Remove extra vertical whitespace between items of field lists that
are "simple" (i.e., all field bodies each contain at most one
paragraph).  The behaviour can be specified directly via "class"
attributes (values "compact" and "open") in the document.

Default: enabled (1).
Options: ``--compact-field-lists, --no-compact-field-lists``.

.. _embed_stylesheet [html4css1 writer]:

embed_stylesheet
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Embed the stylesheet in the output HTML file.  The stylesheet file
must specified by the stylesheet_path__ setting and must be
accessible during processing.
Also defined for the `LaTeX Writer <embed_stylesheet [latex2e writer]_>`__.

Default: enabled.  Options: ``--embed-stylesheet,
--link-stylesheet``.

__ `stylesheet_path [html4css1 writer]`_

field_name_limit
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The maximum width (in characters) for one-column field names. Longer
field names will span an entire row of the table used to render the field
list.  0 indicates "no limit".  See also option_limit_.

Default: 14 (i.e. 14 characters).  Option: ``--field-name-limit``.

.. _footnote_references [html4css1 writer]:

footnote_references
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Format for footnote references, one of "superscript" or "brackets".
Also defined for the `LaTeX Writer <footnote_references [latex2e writer]_>`__.

Overrides [#override]_ trim_footnote_reference_space_, if
applicable. [#footnote_space]_

Default: "brackets".  Option: ``--footnote-references``.

initial_header_level
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The initial level for header elements.  This does not affect the
document title & subtitle; see doctitle_xform_.

Default: 1 (for "<h1>").  Option: ``--initial-header-level``.

math_output
~~~~~~~~~~~

The format of mathematical content (`math directive`_ and role) in
the output document. Supported values are (case insensitive):

:HTML:
  Format math in standard HTML enhanced by CSS rules.
  Requires the ``math.css`` stylesheet (in the system
  `stylesheet directory <stylesheet_dirs [html4css1 writer]_>`_

  A `stylesheet_path <stylesheet_path [html4css1 writer]_>`_
  can be appended after whitespace, the specified
  stylesheet(s) will only be referenced or embedded, if required
  (i.e. if there is mathematical content in the document).

:MathJax:
  Format math for display with MathJax_, a JavaScript-based math
  rendering engine that uses HTML/CSS, JavaScript, and unicode
  fonts for high-quality typesetting that is scalable and prints
  at full resolution.

  Pro:
    Works 'out of the box' across multiple browsers and platforms.

    Supports a large subset of LaTeX math commands and constructs
    (see http://www.mathjax.org/docs/1.1/tex.html).

  Con:
    Requires an Internet connection (or a local MathJax
    installation and configuration).

    Downloads JavaScript code from a third-party site.

  A custom URI can be appended after whitespace,
  for example a local installation ::

    math-output: MathJax file:/usr/share/javascript/mathjax/MathJax.js

  or a URI to `access the MathJax CDN using a https secure
  connection`__.

  __ http://www.mathjax.org/resources/faqs/#problem-https

:MathML:
  Embed math content as presentational MathML_.

  Pro:
    The W3C recommendation for math on the web.

    Self-contained documents (no JavaScript, no external downloads).

  Con:
    Docutil's latex2mathml converter supports only a small
    subset of LaTeX syntax.

    With the "html4css1" writer, the resulting HTML document does

section_enumerator_separator
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The separator between section number prefix and enumerator for
compound enumerated lists (see `compound_enumerators`_).

Generally it isn't recommended to use both sub-sections and nested
enumerated lists with compound enumerators.  This setting avoids
ambiguity in the situation where a section "1" has a list item
enumerated "1.1", and subsection "1.1" has list item "1".  With a
separator of ".", these both would translate into a final compound
enumerator of "1.1.1".  With a separator of "-", we get the
unambiguous "1-1.1" and "1.1-1".

      \setmainfont{Linux Libertine O}
      \setsansfont{Linux Biolinum O}
      \setmonofont[HyphenChar=None]{DejaVu Sans Mono}

  The optional argument ``HyphenChar=None`` to the monospace font
  prevents word hyphenation in literal text.

no-endnotes-end-doc
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Generate footnotes at bottom of page, not endnotes at end of
document. (default)

generate-list-toc
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Generate a bullet list table of contents, not an
ODF/``oowriter`` table of contents.

generate-oowriter-toc
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Generate an ODF/``oowriter`` table of contents, not a bullet
list.  (default) **Note:** ``odtwriter`` is not able to
determine page numbers, so you will need to open the generated
document in ``oowriter``, then right-click on the table of
contents and select "Update" to insert page numbers.

custom-odt-header
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Specify the contents of a custom header line.  For details about
custom headers and about special field character sequences, see
section "Custom header/footers: inserting page numbers, date,
time, etc" in the `Odt Writer for Docutils`_ document for
details.

custom-odt-footer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

------------------

This writer does not define specific settings.


[applications]
==============

[buildhtml application]
-----------------------

ignore
~~~~~~

configuration files or on the command line); on the command line, the
option may also be used more than once.

Default: none.  Options: ``--ignore``.

prune
~~~~~

List_ of directories not to process.  To specify multiple
directories, use colon-separated paths (in configuration files or
on the command line); on the command line, the option may also be
used more than once.

Default: ['.hg', '.bzr', '.git', '.svn', 'CVS'].  Options:
``--prune``.

recurse

[docfactory application]
------------------------

(To be completed.)


Other Settings
==============

Command-Line Only
-----------------

These settings are only effective as command-line options; setting
them in configuration files has no effect.

config
~~~~~~

Path to a configuration file to read (if it exists) [#pwd]_.
Settings may override defaults and earlier settings.  The config
file is processed immediately.  Multiple ``--config`` options may
be specified; each will be processed in turn.

Filesystem path settings contained within the config file will be
interpreted relative to the config file's location (*not* relative
to the current working directory).

Default: None.  Options: ``--config``.


Internal Settings
-----------------

These settings are for internal use only; setting them in
configuration files has no effect, and there are no corresponding
command-line options.

_config_files
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

List of paths of applied configuration files.

Default: None.  No command-line options.

_directories
~~~~~~~~~~~~

(``buildhtml.py`` front end.)  List of paths to source
directories, set from positional arguments.

Default: current working directory (None).  No command-line
options.

_disable_config
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. _ISO 3166: http://www.iso.ch/iso/en/prods-services/iso3166ma/
   02iso-3166-code-lists/index.html

.. [#pwd] Path relative to the working directory of the process at
   launch.

.. [#override] The overridden setting will automatically be set to
   ``None`` for command-line options and config file settings.  Client
   programs which specify defaults that override other settings must
   do the overriding explicitly, by assigning ``None`` to the other
   settings.

.. [#dependencies] Images are only added to the dependency list if the
   reStructuredText parser extracted image dimensions from the file.

.. [#footnote_space] The footnote space is trimmed if the reference
   style is "superscript", and it is left if the reference style is
   "brackets".

   The overriding only happens if the parser supports the
   trim_footnote_reference_space option.


------------------------------
Old-Format Configuration Files
------------------------------

Formerly, Docutils configuration files contained a single "[options]"
section only.  This was found to be inflexible, and in August 2003
Docutils adopted the current component-based configuration file
sections as described above.  Docutils will still recognize the old
"[options]" section, but complains with a deprecation warning.

To convert existing config files, the easiest way is to change the
section title: change "[options]" to "[general]".  Most settings
haven't changed.  The only ones to watch out for are these:
