It's not actualy that hard, and a example isn't exactly needed.

Lines begining with a "#" are comments. They are there, so the file can have plenty of documentation, without any issues of errors.

Some of the actual settings have a # infront of them, and the documentation relating to them, usualy mark if you need to change it or not. 99% of the time, these settings are optional.

All the settings lines, start with "set". This is the command, as may be obvious, to "set" the setting.

Some areas like channels, and the server list, span multiple lines, or don't start with "set", but by the time you are there, you should see how things are happening.

If you are having trouble with any specific areas of it, like failure to understand the exact nature of what a settings does, then simply ask, and we will be willing to help.
