Configuration

Example configuration files are available in the example_configs directory. These should be copied into the appropriate directory for your platform.

Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\vinetrimmer
macOS: ~/Library/Preferences/vinetrimmer
Linux: ~/.config/vinetrimmer

After that, edit the files as appropriate to configure the tool.
