A tag is anything enclosed between < and >. An opening tag has the form "<tag>" while a closing tag has its name preceded with a backslash (\) character as in "<\tag>"

Tags can be considered as folders. Each tag either contains tags or contains a value

The value of the final tag affects in the field defined by its parents tags

<splashy>

This tag is mandatory. It contains all splashy's configuration values, listed below.

<themes>

<current_theme>

<default_theme>

Full path to a theme to fall back to if the theme specified in <current_theme>'s value can't be found. Default: /etc/splashy/themes/default

<pid>

Full path to the PID file splashy will use to store its PID so that other processes can know if it is running. Default: /var/run/splashy.pid

Comments can be introduced by enclsing them between <!-- and -->. Blank lines are also ignored

  <splashy>

     <current_theme>default</current_theme>
     <!-- full path to theme to fall back in case of problems. DO NOT CHANGE -->
     <default_theme>/etc/splashy/themes/default</default_theme>
     <!-- this defaults should be ok -->
     <pid>/var/run/splashy.pid</pid>
