If a NULL tag is passed to smiInit the config file isn't read. I had to read through the init code before I realised what was going on.
If tag is not NULL, the global configuration file and (on UNIX systems) a
user configuration file are read implicitly,
Yes, it's documented, but it doesn't feel like 'natural' behaviour. Why would you not want the init file called in this case.
