Hi Aitor and Tilt,

As it is, the frontend can use an /etc config file for the location
and name of the backend but the GUI does NOT provide any means to
alter the config file.

Do you, Tilt, still think that I have to remove the use of a config
file even though users have to edit it by hand? The only purpose of
the config file is to specify the full path to the backend executable.
