Override XYplorer.ini settings

Post by highend »

Please allow us to override settings in the XYplorer.ini file!

The "admin.ini" file would have been a good place for it but unfortunately the [Settings] section name is already used (for license things)

So how about "overrides.ini"?

If XYplorer finds it in its root folder on start, it is parsed after the normal XYplorer.ini file
and all settings in there override those from XYplorer.ini.

In other words: It is a second XYplorer.ini file just with higher precedence.

How would I fill mine?

Code: Select all

[Settings]
CEA_ListDoubleClickOnWhite=1
and get rid of the dreaded change that "Go up" isn't the default anymore on double-click on white in file list...

This would allow perfect preconfigurations of new XYplorer instances...

Could be a possibility. Not for every setting (there are some complex interrelations) but for most.

I guess nobody requires all of them, just leave those with complex interrelations out :tup:
