This file is %HOMEPATH%\.gnubg\gnubgrc or $HOME/.gnubg/gnubgrc depending 
on if you use Windows or Linux.

Adding this line as well should be useful since the default plies 0 
would have pruning set to off:
set analysis luckanalysis prune on


You mentionned earlier that 2 ply analysis might be slow. This is an 
understatement... 21 rolls will have to be analyzed for each move 
instead of 1. There will be some cacheing, but on the other hand luck 
analysis does not use multiple threads even if the skill analysis does.

I occasionally use 4 ply skill + 2 ply luck analysis and the second part 
makes a very noticeable difference in run time.
