No. The built-in configuration is necessary for initialization and parses the built-in dosemu.conf; without it dosemu is in an inconsistent state. This way we enforce that what is commented out in the default dosemu.conf actually corresponds to the reald default settings (because the built-in one is parsed without the #'s). But you can completely overwrite the config afterwards in any way you like. "config_script" provides a way to let your own "global.conf" do things on top of the default configuration, perhaps ignoring any real dosemu.conf -- without a "config_script" or -F setting the builtin global.conf will: 1. parse builtin dosemu.conf 2. parse real dosemu.conf 3. parse ~/.dosemurc With -F or "config_script" steps 2 and 3 are up to what you supply. With -n step 2 is skipped for a /etc independent configuration.
