# The README says it twice, and the source agrees. README, "Configuring Slate":
# "Slate is configured using a '.slate' file in the current user's home
# directory", and, above it, "You may now use a '.slate.js' file to configure
# slate using JavaScript". Slate/SlateConfig.m loads exactly those two literals
# at startup — `[self loadConfigFileWithPath:@"~/.slate"]` and
# `[self loadConfigFileWithPath:@"~/.slate.js"]` — falling back to the bundled
# default.slate when neither exists. Both are joined to the home directory, so
# both stay literal.

# Snapshots are not config: SlateConfig.m writes them to
# `[sharedFM applicationSupportDirectory]` under the name SNAPSHOTS_FILE
# ("snapshots"), and they are window arrangements Slate captured at runtime for
# one screen layout, not something the user wrote. They are not below either
# path above, so nothing needs carving out.

# A window-management config: bindings, layouts and screen-configuration

secret = []

# No machine_lines. A `default` directive names a screen configuration —
# `default myLayout resolutions:1440x900;1680x1050` — which is arguably about
# one desk rather than one user, but Slate's whole point is that those layouts
# follow the monitors, and a rule holding them back would strip the part of the
# file the user spent the most time on. The absolute paths that appear in
# `shell` operations sit inside a command string rather than in a keyword of
# their own, so no prefix can name them either.

# No side_effect = false: Slate reads the config once at launch (and again on
# "Load Config"), so a rewrite mid-session is not picked up on its own.
