2.5.10  Configuration file

When you save changes to your configuration, they are stored in a configuration file, which will be .xcasrc in your home directory in Unix and xcas.rc in Windows. This file will have four functions – widget_size, cas_setup, xcas_mode and xyztrange – which determine the configuration and which are evaluated when Xcas starts.

The widget_size command sets properties of the opening Xcas window.

The cas_setup command determines how computations will be performed.

The xcas_mode command sets the computer language used by Xcas (see Section 2.5.2).

The xyztrange command sets or returns the values of the graphics configuration.
