+<p>TAO can be configured in several ways. Certain components in TAO,
+such as the ORB Core or Object Adapter, can be tuned by users by
+providing value for options or environment variables to them. These
+options are commonly specified as (1) environment variables or (2)
+strings passed on the command-line. Command-line options and
+environment variables to control global ORB features, such as the IOR
+format or ORB's bootstraping methods. They are generally passed to
+component initialization methods for consumption. <P>

+In addition, options in <code>svc.conf</code> file provide a mechanism
+to fine-tune internal components in TAO that are specific to
+particular configurations. If your program use-cases have particular
+characteristics, you can use the <code>svc.conf</code> file to
+customize your programs and use various optimization provided by TAO .
+However, a <code>svc.conf</code> file is not required to run TAO
+programs. </p>
<P><EM>Programmer's Note:</EM> the internal structure for options is
the traditional <CODE>argc</CODE>/<CODE>argv</CODE> vector of strings
