True, this is user unfriendly and highly valueable for us developers. strace will tell so much more than just where the configuration file is read.

However, printing the information as part of "sensors --help" would be great, agreed. I just added that (together with removing the default configuration file locations list, and having only one default configuration file, which sounds sufficent and saner). > Disclaimer: I myself am new to the lm_sensors scene and I've never > actually run sensors on any computer yet. Feel free to voice in and, why not, provide some code if you have other good ideas like this one :) Thanks, -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/
