aurvote: Interactively create the file `~/.config/aurvote` containing your AUR username and password.
$ aurvote --configure
try on your machine

The command aurvote --configure is used to set up the configuration settings for the aurvote tool.

The aurvote tool is typically used in Arch User Repository (AUR) to vote for packages. The AUR is a community-driven repository for Arch Linux where users can contribute and maintain packages that are not included in the official repositories.

When running aurvote --configure, it opens a configuration file where you can customize the settings of the aurvote tool. This allows you to specify options such as your AUR username and password, the URL of the AUR website, the voting keyring, and other related settings.

By configuring the aurvote tool, you can ensure that it has the necessary authentication details and settings to interact with the AUR and vote for packages as desired.
