Portable version loses kitty.sav

mjm - Sun 03/08/2008 16:26:58 CEST +0200

Hello,
First off, thanks for your efforts. The features are impressive...
However, I am having a problem with the kitty.sav file getting reset (v0.60.65.15p).
Here are the steps to recreate the issue:
Copy kitty_portable.exe a flash drive, lets say "F:\kitty_portable.exe".
Via Explorer, run kitty_portable.exe and configure a session and save.
From command line, cd to the root of c: and run via "F:\kitty_portable.exe".
This will wipe out the kitty.sav file.

It appears to be caused by running kitty_portable while not being in the directory where the executable is located.
Not a huge problem, but frustrating to lose all saved sessions...

Also, two other questions:

As I type in the session name, all other session names are filtered / hidden.
Is there a way to turn this off? Maybe this is necessary for your folder implementation?

I really like the rollup feature, is there a way to make the window rollup by default when
double clicking the titlebar (instead of ctrl-click or ctrl-F12)?

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike

There so many questions ;-)

• First one, about the kitty.sav problem, I could not reproduce it. Check you KiTTY section of the kitty.ini file. You must not have sav value. If the problem remains join me by mail and send me your kitty.ini and kitty.sav files. I really think it is a huge problem.

• Second one, about the filter of the session list into the configuration box: I add a new parameter to disable the automatic filter. Just write these two lines into you kitty.ini file:

[ConfigBox]
filter=no

Get the very last binary.

• Third one: unfortunatly I can't modify the shortcut as you want. double click on title bar is already used by full screen feature.

When kitty_portable.exe is first executed, it creates
a default kitty.ini file. The default ini file contains "sav=kitty.sav".
If I go in and remove the sav value, everything works ok and kitty.sav does not
get reset when using the previous example.

I also noticed a "savemode=registry", shouldn't this be "file" by default for the portable version
or does it not apply ?

Thanks,
Mike

Corrected in 0.60.65.19.
In portable mode there is no need for a sav entry in the kitty.ini file
