Is there a way to copy the launch profiles in Dart Editor?

I download the latest editor/SDK each day and rebuilding launch profiles for my projects each time. I was wondering if there is a file somewhere that I can just copy over instead?

While I haven't tried with the continuous, I overwrite the existing install each week when I update the integrated build. This keeps my settings and profiles without any issues and it's very rare when something messes up and I have to blow away the dart/ directory and reinstall 'clean'.

The launch profiles are stored in the workspace metadata, under workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.debug.core/.launches . If you do not delete the workspace at every new install, the launches preserve.

The editor seems to create the workspace directory in the current
working
directory (at least it does under Linux), so I use the following bash
alias to start the editor:

alias de='(cd ~/projects/dart && DartEditor)'

This ensures the configuration data is always in the same place in my
projects directory and it doesn't get overwritten when updating.
