 +Any configuration parameter can be over-ridden by using the ''-cnf=<file.conf>'' command-line option that is supposed by any ACT tool. While most technology-specific options are unlikely to need to be overridden,
 +others (e.g. warnings, definitions of macros) may need [[config:runtime|user customization]].
