DESCRIPTION
A global to hold various user-settable configuration settings. Use e.g. (set-sc-config 'default-dir "~/Desktop") or (get-sc-config 'default-dir) to set or query the settings.
SYNOPSIS
(defparameter +slippery-chicken-config-data+
;; The default directory for output of sound files, EPS files, and Lilypond
;; files. Don't forget the trailing slash (i.e. "/tmp/" not "/tmp"). Bear in
;; mind that on OSX the /tmp directory is emptied upon reboot so you shouldn't
;; store any files you'd like to keep in there.
