Oh, indeed. I didn't realize that. The behavior is defined in

I think I have this working now :-)
I had to make two changes to dyre:
- In Config.Dyre, I removed lines 188 to 191 which delete "errors.txt". This

What should I see when Yi loads? If my config file is broken, where should I
see errors? The debug option didn't produce anything useful.
After starting up, the help option does open my config, so I think it is in
