I have these in my exec directory and i think the only ones i have modified are dosemu and init-ticket. i would think to be honest that even just a symlink should work fine.

sbbs@sbbs:~/exec$ ls *.ini
dosemu.ini  init-fidonet.ini  init-tickit.ini  kermit.ini  sbbsexec.ini  sutils.ini

totally... i dont know why they're split up with most being in one and a couple in the main directory.

all my stuff i write, i either use the exec directory, or if i have something with a separate config directory then everything goes in there.
