Yes,  Lady Heather has two ways of loading/changing a configuration.
You can put a heather.cfg file in your Lady Heather directory.  This file should contain any command line parameters that you want to use...  one per line with the '/' in the first column.  Use heather /? (or ? from the keyboard) for a list of command line options.  At the end of that help dialog screen it will tell you what your heather directory is.  Also see the comments at the start of the heather.cpp source code file...  that is where what passes for program documentation is...
You can also make keyboard script files that when read in with the /r=???.scr command line option or the 'R' keyboard command will be read and the text in the file will act just like you typed it from the keyboard (with a few extensions that are documented in the comments at the start of the hearher.cpp source code file).  There is not a way to have heather automatically write a .SCR file that will re-create any changes to the configuration that you may have made...  your have to create the script file manually.  Script files can be nested up to five levels deep.
