Jalopy stores settings as binary files inside its settings directory. The files are not directly editable, instead a GUI tool is provided for configuration that lets you import/export code conventions to share your settings in a textual format.
In order to export your settings, follow the steps as described below:
Open the preferences dialog. On Mac OS X you use Eclipse->Preferences... On other platforms the dialog is available through Window->Preferences...
Select the Jalopy item on the left pane. In order to quickly locate the item, you might want to type "Jalopy" in the filter field at the top.
Press the Export... button to open the export dialog
Specify the file where your settings should be written. Or type one directly into the text field
Finally press the OK button to flush the settings to disk
