# gomconfig(8)

configuration tool for gom, a generic audio mixer

## NAME

gomconfig - configuration tool for gom, a generic audio mixer

## SYNOPSIS

**gomconfig \[--version \| --force \| --purge\]**

## VERSION

This manual page was distributed with **gom 0.30.5** (31 May 2004).

## DESCRIPTION

**gomconfig** is an interactive, text based configuration tool for gom. It deals with files in ~/.gom/ for a normal user, and with files in /etc/gom/ for the superuser.

If gomconfig is run without arguments, it will check the validity of the current configuration and only go interactive if it is invalid.

Please see [*gom*(1)](/gom/1.md) for details about gom's configuration.

## OPTIONS

- **--version**

  Display version information.

- **--force**

  Forces reconfiguration (even if current configuration is valid).

- **--purge**

  Removes configuration directory (~/.gom or /etc/gom, respectively) completely. This will run non-interactively, but will create a temporary backup.

## AUTHOR

**Gomconfig** is part of the gom package.

## BUGS

Gomconfig is probably overkill; you might prefer to simply use an editor (and gom itself) to change the configuration.
