### 7.9.3 Creating a sample configuration file

AutoOpts is shipped with a template named, ``rc-sample.tpl'`. If your option definition file specifies the `homerc` attribute, then you may invoke ``autogen'` thus:

    autogen -Trc-sample <your-option-def-file>

This will, by default, produce a sample file named, ``sample-<prog-name>rc'`. It will be named differently if you specify your configuration (rc) file name with the `rcfile` attribute. In that case, the output file will be named, ``sample-<rcfile-name>'`. It will contain all of the program options not marked as `no-preset`. It will also include information about how they are handled and the text from the `doc` attribute.
