is there a "Lazarus.ini"?
Nicole:
Yes, there is, but it does not contain, what I want to save.
What I want to save is the configuration of the IDE, everything if I click (I hope these are the correct word in English): IDE-configuration and read: environment, editor,.... There I can set the position of my new methods as well as I can click, if I want to change the configuration of my icons.
I searched a while for "ini" and "xml", but nothing seems to hold this information.
Which file to backup to save this?
Thanks.
And a wish to Santa-Clause: What about an icon "backup my IDE-settings"? :-*
Martin_fr:
The config is in the primary-config-path. And it is stored in several xml files.
Default
Linux: ~/.lazarus
Win: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\lazarus
If non-default: Menu: View > Ide Internals > About Ide
There is an optional lazarus.cfg (search wiki), that can be used to set an alternative primary-conf-path
Martin_fr:
Note, some xml files may contain absolute path (eg to the lazarus dir, or to fpc). So if you copy them to a 2nd install, you need to check those path.
