Re: [orca-list] orca settings aren't being saved

[Steve Holmes <steve holmes88 gmail com>]

I didn't know it was doing that.  Sounds almost like a bug to me.
Deletion of the old directory is probably the best in the long run
however.  I just wonder if a bug should be filed as the new settings
should be saved no matter if the old .orca directory is still present.
