## Configuration Files

A complete configuration consists of several files. These files are text files. Since `p11-kit` is built to be used in all sorts of environments and at very low levels of the software stack, we cannot make use of high level configuration APIs that you may find on a modern desktop.

See the manual page for more details on the format and available options.

Note that user configuration files are not loaded from the home directory if running inside a setuid or setgid program.
