They do share the same prefs file, and the only reason to not share them is the libraries preference, which I didn't consider very significant. I figured that most people would want to keep all their preferences, so the options were to write something to transparently copy the old preferences, or just use the old preferences. I opted for the latter. -- Chris Nandor [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pudge.net/ Open Source Development Network [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://osdn.com/
