As I read Lex's sentence, he spoke about settings, not open files. And anyway, I don't see what separating file list from the rest of the config change in that matter. It doesn't magically brings immediate/periodical saving of the file list, and we can very well save everything *including the file list* without that. So I don't see why it's an argument in favor (or against) $subject. > > Cheers, > Matthew Brush > > [1] Well for favourite projects it might be saved, but not if it's a new > project that hasn't experienced a closing before. > > [2] Unless you count the lame GTK+ open dialog recent files list which > is quite useless. > _______________________________________________ > Geany-devel mailing list > Geany-devel@uvena.de > https://lists.uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany-devel _______________________________________________ Geany-devel mailing list Geany-devel@uvena.de https://lists.uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany-devel
