30.1 Overview

Configuration files define the NXC's settings. Shell scripts are files of commands that you can store
on the NXC and run when you need them. You can apply a configuration file or run a shell script
without the NXC restarting. You can store multiple configuration files and shell script files on the
NXC. You can edit configuration files or shell scripts in a text editor and upload them to the NXC.
Configuration files use a .conf extension and shell scripts use a .zysh extension.
