Copy options between computers

[Olivier Jacquemin]

Hi Nick,

I just discovered glogg and it rocks!

It provides many improvements over my previous favorite: bare(tail|grep):
- regexes in color filters,
- two-pane window showing context of bottom-selected line in top,
- follow mode,
- etc.

Is there a way to copy filters config from one computer to another?

One suggestion also: it would be nice to allow case-insensitive regex for color filters.

Thanks a lot for sharing this great tool!

It depends on the platform, on Linux/BSD... the config file is in
~/.config/glogg and can just be copied across machines.

On Windows it's a bit more complicated since the config is stored in the
registry. You can probably copy the registry entries but I am not sure
how to do that.

I am thinking of moving the configuration to an old fashioned .ini file
instead of the registry. Does anyone familiar with Windows know where
the configuration files should be stored? In the application directory?
In a central place?

Absolutely, I'll add that to the list of current issues.

Where in Windows registry - I searched for "glogg" and don't find filter - color setup.  Thanks!
