Sharing editor settings with a team
« on: March 28, 2009, 06:23:57 pm »
We're developing on both Linux and Windows systems. We'd like to exchange editor settings (code highlighting settings, location of braces etc) so we all use the same. Is it possible to do this?

The current "canonical settings" are on my Ubuntu machine using C::B version 8.02-0ubuntu1, and the first machine we want to move it to is a Windows XP machine using Cygwin and C::B.

Any recommended solutions, or even hacks involving copy-pasting in config files for C::B would be appreciated as we'd like to avoid synchronizing our editors by manually setting the correct options in the GUI! I'm not too experienced with Ubuntu yet so I don't know which folder application settings typically are located in.

Thanks,
meh

hi, usually applications data is stored on linux systems on the /home/yourusername/.hiddendirectory/files

So on your home path check show hidden files and search for /home/yourusername/.codeblocks

there are all the files you need to pass to your friend,

Good luck!
