                     18: <p>If you use the FreeBSD package or port, mpd will be
                     19: automatically installed
                     20: into <code>/usr/local/sbin/mpd5</code>.
                     21: with the default set of device types compiled into it.
                     22: In order to run, mpd needs
                     23: a few configuration files. The directory
                     24: <code>/usr/local/etc/mpd5</code> is created
                     25: to hold them.
                     26: In it you will find some sample configuration files.</p>
                     27: <p>Before you can run mpd, you must set up your site-specific
                     28: configuration files. These files are:

                     32: When mpd is invoked, you specify the name of a
                     33: configuration on the command line. This configuration
                     34: (which merely consists of a series of mpd commands) is loaded.
                     35: If no configuration is given, 'default' configuration
                     36: is loaded.</p>

                     39: They can be defined with the <b><code>create</code></b> command.
                     40: Subsequent commands in the configuration configure the various
                     41: layers for that item.</p>
