Distribute a default data/options.dist.php

[nodiscc]

data/options.dist.php should contain a copy of all configurable settings (those listed in index.php) and their defaults. Anytime, if data/options.php doesn't exist, recreate it by copying data/options.dist.php -> data/options.php.

This prevents temptation to edit index.php directly and presents all available options to users directly in the config file.

this may become invalid/unnecessary after #255

config.php now contains all settings, including credentials. If the file is deleted, install() will be called to recreate it with valid values.

To prevent edition in index.php, we can add:

// DO NOT FUCKING TOUCH THESE! Change them in /data/config.php.

I suggest we close this as wontfix.

Agreed for closing as won't fix

Regarding settings, there's a nice module to politely handle user mistakes: ArnoldC :D

I've moved the configuration-related documentation to a dedicated page, and replaced the available option list with a commented version of data/config.php

That was the point of this issue. Thanks!
