Here is what I did:  I made the blank file, then I made myself
a character (with "mdg_char") who had everything set to zero. Then
I took that file, changed the numbers from zero to other values,
and replaced the "default" file.  Now new players get something.

I still don't know exactly what the file format is, but the various
numbers correspond to those you see in the "mdg_char" program.
