| <h2><a name="Configuration_Files"></a>Configuration Files</h2> |
| <p>Chainsaw makes use of several config files in order to keep track of data. These files are located in the ~/.chainsaw directory. These files are:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>chainsaw.settings.properties - global settings * Default.colors - global color settings(note: merge with chainsaw.settings.properties) * mru.xml - most recently used files(merge with chainsaw settings?) * receiver-config.xml - currently configured receivers, contains the properties for the receiver |
| <p>Each receiver has two files(note: need to merge into 1). One .properties file and one .xml file. The properties file does not seem to be used. Possibly also a .colors file gets created.</p></li> |
| <li>receivername.xml - contains the tab-specific settings for this receiver * receivername.properties - does not seem to be used?</li></ul></div> |
| <div class="section"> |
| <h2><a name="a--"></a>--</h2> |
| <p>Data will be stored as 'receivername.properties.' This makes viewing storage easy; upon loading, UUID will be created that will be the object used to manage the tab(so we can re-name tab).</p> |
| <p>How to find receivers? Maybe list all files that end in '-receiver.properties'? So it would be receivername-receiver.properties in ~/.chainsaw</p> |
| <p>Something to think about</p> |
| <p>recievername-receiver.properties also contains the configuratin for the receiver.</p> |
| <p>Tabs created from expression could be 'name-tab.properties' to differentiate from the reciever</p></div> |
