That would work for the CFG file options, certainly. Would that work for
the flags? Though I guess the flags themselves are not all that lengthy..

It's a good suggestion, thank you!

How about putting them in a file, and then using the include: command on
that file?

So, you would have base-globals.cfg with all of your default settings,

cfgmaker ... --global 'include: base-globals.cfg' ...
