CONFIGURATION
S-Jog reads its configuration from /etc/sjogrc or $HOME/.sjogrc if it exists.
An entry is defined by a name and a command. The name can contain spaces if it is put between double-quotes ("name").
The command is the path of the program to launch when the item is clicked or one of the 4 special keywords: brightness and volume will launch a setting window for the screen brightness and the speakers' volume, redo will rerun the last command launched, and hide does nothing and makes the menu disappear.
Lines beginning with a # are comment.
