Look at man xf86config and man xf86cfg

AFAIK, yes.
However:  if Amir Tal's original problem was not only in his XF86Config-4
file but also in another place, then a quick way to solve the problem
would have been to have a clean and working installation.  Amir could
then compare all of his config files with the corresponding ones in the
clean installation, and even temporarily substitute them - until he finds
which was botched up without backup.

(For now, this is just an academic discussion, as Amir Tal solved his
problem.)
