I'm writing a plugin and I want to allow the user to select one set of preferences for the current .leo file and another set of preferences to be the current defaults for all .leo files. I want these preferences to persist from one Leo-Editor session to another. That is, they must be saved on disk somehow, somewhere.
Naively one might think that the preferences for a particular .leo file should be saved in the .leo file itself, but I understand and agree with Edward that such things as these plugin-specific preferences should not be written to the .leo file. I believe Edward advocates writing them to the "cache." How do I do this? That is, write them to "cache" and read them from "cache" so they are associated with a particular .leo file? Should the current defaults for all .leo files also be written to the "cache"? Is there cache access not associated with any specific .leo file? Or should the current defaults for all .leo file be written to To myLeoSettings.leo? Or to a file specific to my plugin in the directory containing (or that would contain) myLeoSettings.leo? Or ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group. To post to this group, send email to leo-editor@googlegroups.com.
