[1.1.2] quick newb question - referencing Jot and .inc.html files

When calling Jot:

[[Jot? &customfields=`name,email` &moderated=`1` &otherParameters=`value`]] (or [! !])

those parameters reference the chunk.comment.inc.html, chunk.form.inc.html, etc. in the assets/snippets/jot/templates folder?

does that mean I only need to do a call to Jot with whatever parameters i need in to get those different elements onto my page?

thanks.

ok, maybe rephrasing might help.
when i download Jot 1.1.2, there is an "templates" folder. Do I simply upload that folder along with everything else to the "jot" directory and then make references to them when I’m calling Jot?
or do i need to make TVs or chunks out of them in order to use them?

any help is greatly appreciated. I also believe the documentation on Jot is a bit lacking, like someone else has said in this forum.

You upload everything from Jot archive on to your server. The templates in jot templates folder are the default ones. You can edit those if you want, or create a chunk as a new template and &tpl... parameters to define the chunk, or you can create new template in file and pass the path as &tpl... parameter value. You don’t have to edit the default templates, they are to be used if you want to do something special.

thanks doze.

what do you mean by "something special" in referring to those template files?

different type of html output or custom fields etc
