Bash script to parse and log only the configured *(uncommented)* lines/settings in a configuration file. *Used ‘kitty.conf’ as an example*.

#       List of configured 'kitty.conf' options 
#
#   This File Only Shows The Set Options In 'kitty.conf'
#   Which Makes It Easier To Know Which Options Are Configured
#
#   This file is not a live/up-to-date list of set options,
#   if an option was set and this file wasnt updated,
#   the option will not show in this file until it is updated  
#
#   To View all set options ... run this command ...
#       $ cat kitty.conf | grep --regexp='^[^#]'
#
#   To update this file to show all set options .. 
#       Run this script :)
#
#   Make sure to define and export the kitty config variable
#       (Add to your .bashrc or .zshrc)
#       export KITTY_CONFIG="$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/kitty/kitty.conf"
#   
#   If '$XDG_CONFIG_HOME' is not defined, either define it,
#   or edit the variable value to point to your 'kitty.conf'
