I guess perhaps I was seeing things. I've used localprefs...but I didn't remember creating it.
This is off subject, but as far as the whole localprefs.js/preferences.js I've got an entirely different opinion. -Get rid of localprefs.js. -Create a file called preference_values.js (or whatever floats your boat) Then change preferences.js to hold the following information: -Name of pref -HTML code to change pref: <input name type=checkbox onChange=updatePrefs() value=?> (yeah....lotta work to be done on that) Then, we create functions that will: - Create a preferences popup form (like the About form) and show HTML for all the preferences found in preferences.js - Load the values out of preference_values.js (replace the ? from the HTML code) - Maintain/update and output the array to the preference_values.js using code like the current history functions. - Force reload of dqsdd when user presses "Save" So...it's little more than a theory right now, but I feel it should be done that way or something similar. *Nix users love editing text based preference files - but the average Windows user doesn't. I'm working on another rather extensive addition to dqsdd right now. After I finish it, perhaps I'll tackle that theory. -Dan -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Ryan Edwards Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2002 5:06 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [DQSD-Users] Missing local-stuff..... I've been doing that with the localprefs.js / preferences.js files. My plan was to move all of the commenting currently found in preferences into localprefs and comment out all of the lines used to set values. This way, the user doesn't have to go through the process of copying the setting he wants to change into localprefs because they are all already there, just commented out. The preferences.js file would become a simple list without any commenting like aliases.txt, its only purpose to set the default values.

I'm almost certain that localaliases.txt is the only user preference file installed. It was installed simply to give some examples of usage. Probably is a good idea to at least drop empty copies of the other user preference files in a fresh install, with just some comments at the top explaining usage. > Now that HAS to clear everything.
