Hi,
I think it would be awesome if Pureref will allow saving of preferences inside local folder. By this it would be fully portable and we should not have to run through preferences each time we reinstall our operational system.
Thank you for the support and the best ref app!
Do you mean that you would like PureRef to look for a settings file locally first and then fall back to the system specific location? We could make it so that it looks for one locally but will only automatically create one in the system specific config location. That way, if you know what you're doing you can place the PureRef.ini alongside PureRef and PureRef would prioritize that one.
A workaround until then is to create a shortcut to your PureRef binary which specifies the location of your PureRef.ini with the command line argument -s <location to ini>.
Exactly, that's it! I also wanted to emphasise that apps like Pureref should respect portability. In general, that's my Swiss knife :D In any case, thank you for listening!
Alright, we'll see what we can do for future versions of PureRef! Thanks for the suggestion :)
