IRIS
Intelligent Roadway Information System
Client Properties
The IRIS server has a configuration file which contains default properties for
clients — /etc/iris/iris-client.properties. These properties include
internationalization, network proxy, and other system configuration. Note that
even though IRIS has been internationalized, it has not yet been translated to
languages other than english.

User Properties
The IRIS client also reads a property file on client computers. The file is
named user.properties, and can be found in the iris folder of the user's
home directory. It can contain overrides for any of the values in the
client properties file.
The file is overwritten when logging out. The window geometry and last selected tab will be updated, but all other properties will be left unchanged.
