Hi folks,

perhaps Arachne could use generally an own temp directory, which is by
default something like [drive]:\arachne\temp. The one who like to change
this could do this via arachne.cfg or via a setup screen.
Speaking about setup, to shorten installation procedure, a button "Get
config files from older version" would be useful, IMHO.
