The major implication is that it is up to you to adjust SA to find your rules in their non-standard location. > So far I have figured out, that local.cf is no special file and will > be overridden by anything in the site directory that follows it > (alphabetically speaking). So my solution (put new scores in a .cf > with a name beginning with zzz) is probably the quickest solution. There is nothing special about local.cf. It is just a standard place for you to put your changes. All .cf files in the directory will be read in alphanumeric order and the later files will override the earlier files if there are any conflicts. Using a file such as zzz.cf would be a good way to make sure your changes are read last. Of course, it doesn't make any difference if you are trying to override the standard rules. They are all read first anyway. -- Bowie
