That was probably my inspiration. :-) The problem with the dot file generator is that you (the programmer, or the dotfile generator programmers) must write an interpreter for each kind of dotfile that will be supported, and then you must write an interface for the dot file generator. And all this in tcl, I beleive? My idea is a litte more abstract -- by specifying a fairly simple profile of your application's configurable variables you would get a fairly nice configuration editor. And the editor itself would be interface non-specific: it could use curses, or gtk, or an elisp app (or preferably all of the above).
