Do we really need a config file any more?

At the moment, the config file only has two entries: default_proc_number and tmp_dir. tmp_dir can already be changed with environment variables. I wonder if anyone ever bothers to change default_proc_number. I would propose getting rid of this entirely and making the default number of threads 1. I kind of assume that people are already specifying how many threads they want to use already.

As an aside, Galaxy already does away with the config file.

I'd remove it.

Me too :)

👍 for remove..

This is now gone in develop. The default number of threads for all tools is 1, as seems reasonable.
