[Opensim-dev] Autocreated OpenSim.ini

I think that's a great idea. I was pondering it myself; I think the code 
generated file approach is absolutely the wrong way to do it.

Given the merging capabilities of the config mechanisms couldn't we set it 
up to merge startup.ini (if it exists) after the example .ini? That way we 
would get overrides if they exist, and defaults if they don't without 
doing any conditional copying or munging of files. The startup.ini can 
then be written out by the config mechanism if it didn't already exist, or 
if the configuration has been changed.

Best regards
Alan
