That's just the default value in the input dialog; typing a different value overrides the default.

Yes in theory, SCFG could read the sbbsecho.ini file to find whatever path/filename the sysop chose to name that file. However, a sysop can create/use multiple sbbsecho configuration files (they don't have to be ctrl/sbbsecho.ini), so SCFG wouldn't magically know how to find any other non-default SBBSecho config files.

If you think it's a bug, file a bug report.
