# This is a user's personal configuration file for ods [datasets] # location for the local data cache dir=~/ods_data_cache/ [google docs] # Set the email address of an account to access google doc information. user = user@gmail.com # Set the password of an account to access google doc information. password = password [Gmail] user = user@gmail.com name = Name Surname
