That's what I've been trying to do... Here's what I've been trying to do (keep in mind that these are cuts from the program, not the entire program):

// Cut 1: Prototypes...
int Config (int check, int firstrun);
int Config2 (string line, int firstrun);

// Cut 2: main()...
int main()
{
    int check;
    int firstrun;
    
    Config(check,firstrun);
    
    if (check == 1 && firstrun == 1)
    {
              ofstream config;
              config.open ("firstruncheck.sece", ios::out);
              config << "false";
              config.close();
              
              ofstream autoexec;
              autoexec.open ("autoexec.cfg", ios::out | ios::app);
              autoexec << "// SECE execution commands...\n";
              autoexec.close();
    }
    else
    {
        cout << "The program seems to have returned an error...\n";
    }
// Cut 3: Functions...
int Config (int check, int firstrun)
{
     string line;
     ifstream config ("firstruncheck.sece");
     if (config.is_open())
     {
                          while (!config.eof())
                          {
                                getline (config,line);
                                Config2(line,firstrun);
                                continue;
                          }
                          check = 1;
                          return (check,firstrun);
     }
     else
     {
         cout << "The program has returned an error...\n";
         cout << "Please try again...\n";
         main();
     }
}
// Function 2...
int Config2 (string line, int firstrun)
{
    if (line == "true")
    {
             firstrun = 1;
    }
    return (firstrun);
}

There ya have it. That is all of the relevant information. Can you correct it?
