Thanks for your reply! In fact I started working on a small patch for it, but gave up quickly because I'm really busy elsewhere. I'll see how I can complete a minimalist patch though. What came to my mind is the complexity of such feature, towards the ini file. See: when loading a file (that hook I already found it), I check if a .mcedit file resides in the file's dir. Now.. there are few points: 1) only allowing editor settings only in that file might need to separate the ini loading functions of mcedit to split the loading of editor settings a bit. I'll see if this can be done or we'll have some badly factorized funcs. To check. 2) now what about the ini saving? If a per-directory .mcedit file has been loaded, when saving or autosaving-when-quitting, we should save to this ini file. 3) what about a button in the prefs dialog to load settings from the user's home or save them there. I wonder.. I'll do that work step by step, first implementing the hook and loading prefs in a first time. I'll keep you informed. Regards, -- wwp
