Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

When maintaining/building/deploying many different versions of sites, for instance into environments such as development/QA/production you may override various Drupal variables in the site settings.php file.

If you do, when you view administration/settings forms (both core and your own custom ones), there is no mention that a variable value displayed is actually being overridden.

This module highlights (minimally) to the user when looking at an administration/settings form, which variables that are being displayed are actually being overridden in the settings.php file.

This is module is only meant for use in development environments. And is only useful where you make use of overriding Drupal variables in the settings.php file.
