From edbd0ede0078bde5eb539e175cd7e0e89cd82df0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Scott Wood Date: Sun, 16 Jul 2017 19:16:23 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] ktest: Clarify config file usage Simply telling a new user to edit "the config file" without giving any hints on where that file should go, what it should be named, or where a template can be found, is not particularly helpful.
