Select the Save Configuration tab to access the Save Configuration dialog box. Specify which portions of your configuration to save to the project file.
The Save Configuration dialog box offers the following options:
- Options
Check this option to save the current option and message settings when a configuration is written. By disabling this option, the last-saved content remains valid.
- Editor Configuration
Check this option to save the current editor setting when a configuration is written. By disabling this option, the last-saved content remains valid.
- Appearance
Check this option to save items such as the window position (only loaded at startup time) and the command line content and history. By disabling this option, the last-saved content remains valid.
- Environment Variables
Check this option to save the environment variable changes made in the Environment configuration dialog box.
Note: By clearing specific option, only some parts of a configuration file are written. For example, clear the Options checkbox when the best options are found. Subsequent future save commands no longer modify these options. - Save on Exit
The application saves the current configuration on exit. No save confirmation dialog is displayed. If this option is not set, the application will not write the configuration at exit, even if parts of the configuration have changed. No save confirmation appears in either case when closing the application.
Most settings are stored in the configuration file only. The only exceptions are:
- The recently used configuration list.
- All settings in this dialog box.
Note: The tool configurations can (and in fact are intended to) coexist in the same file as the project configuration of UltraEdit-32. When the shell configures an editor, the application reads this content out of the project file ( project.ini), if present. This filename is also suggested (but not required) to be used by the tool.
