Hi,
I am just testing release 0.65.0a on Windows XP:
1) I am glad that Mahogany now officially supports configuration
files on Windows.
However the support seems to be limited, the following
does not work:
- "When run for the first time, Mahogany creates a directory called .M in
the user's home directory. The file $HOME/.M/config will contain the current
program configuration for this user." ... maybe this is not intended at
all, although I personally liked this feature
- "Mahogany can be pre-configured on a system wide basis by supplying
a M.conf file in the installation directory"
Is this "work in progress"?
2) Interploation of environment variables does not seem to
work.
I tried $HOME, ${HOME}, %HOME and %HOME%
3) I'd suggest the following behaviour on Windows:
An existing $HOME/.M/config should signal that the user does not want to use
the registry but the configuration file. Maybe: Except if the
config file sets (something like) UseRegistry to "1" ;-)
Regards
Roland
