You all repeat another discuses, while the end user like me, still have problem
to share him config espicialy for IDE.
The real question, without using command line how to share config file between
Windows and Linux at the same computer, (export/import it is bad idea).
Let me point where is my config files.
And another problem u must care about it that not all config setting suite for
Linux if i made it in Windows
Why it is bad idea if i put head config file in the config directory (whatever
it placed) to forward the config dir to another one?.
You can place the config path wherever you want. See:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Multiple_Lazarus#The_config_directory
So you can use
lazarus --primary-config-path=/my/shared/config/directory/for/lazarus
or
lazarus --primary-config-path=/my/private/settings
This, combined with some windows batch files or desktop shortcuts, will cover
almost anything you are likely to encounter.
The only point I was trying to make is that on UNIX (and only on Unix) looking by default
in the directory where the binary is, goes against long-standing unix practise and recommendations.
No unix tool does this. Not even when it is freshly (re)built from sources. And
neither should Lazarus.
I claimed no more, no less.
Michael.
