Actually not. If Phil knew d he'd know that putting a non-existing 
option into ~/.d.conf is an even better and more obivious way to 
demonstrate whether ~/.d.conf is read.

I believe Ronald's actual problem is "d does not seem to read 
~/.d.conf" (which is the subject of his posting) because he says "but 
I also do not receive any error message".

And as far as Phil is concerned I have to apologise. His comments were 
not off-topic (although irrelevant to Ronald's problem).
