Errors when loading a configuration file

If an error occurs while loading in a configuration file then will display a suitable message in the window. The error message will also include the line number in the file, although this can be misleading if you do something like forget an ``='' character. It is advisable to switch to your editor, fix the error and reload the configuration file before attempting to do anything else, particularly if the error is in the Default file. See section [*] for a precise description of the syntax required in a configuration file.
