This is a generalized version of the Configuration Tool in Enigma, written by JSMorley. It is designed to read and set identical variables for multiple skins, when the number of skins in a config is too large for a user to do so manually.
RainConfigure.exe must be placed in the top-level folder of the config; it cannot affect skins in folders higher than itself. RainConfigure.cfg must be placed in the same folder as RainConfigure.exe.
The .CFG must be customized for the specific skins and variables that it will affect. The format isn't too much different from a Rainmeter skin:
[Variables]
Variable1
Name the variable on the first line.
Variable2
Provide a short description on the second line.
Variable3
RainConfigure supports up to 200 variables.
Variable4
But for your users' sake, please don't add that many.

When multiple skins are using the same variable, this tool can set that variable to the same value for all of those skins. It does not require anything to be added to the .INI files, aside from a consistent (and exclusive) set of variable names.
As I described, you just need to make sure the two required files - RainConfigure.exe and RainConfigure.cfg - are in the right place. Then, edit RainConfigure to add a list of applicable variables and skin filepaths. When that's done, the tool can be used.
AutoIt is the programming language used to write the tool. The source code is provided, but not required. The executable is entirely independent.
