Editing
When using the Synchronet-Win32 Control Panel, the contents of this file are automatically updated when any of the configuration changes are made in the File->Properties menu or the various server configuration dialogs. Windows sysops may never need to edit this file by hand.
If a sysop needs to edit the file by hand, any decent text file editor should do the job. See INI files for more details.
