Title: Questions on Storage of Projects and Files
Post by: papagym on July 27, 2015, 05:00:30 pm
These may be dumb questions!  But they are pertinent to a beginner. (Please don't tell me to read the C:B Wiki)   A brief explanation will do!  Thanks

How does C:B know where to store your projects and files?

Can these locations be changed while your working in C:B?

How do the Pro's store their reusable functions, lists, snippets, etc. for reuse in other programs?

The user selects the location (note: there might be a location that is used by default)

Can these locations be changed while your working in C:B?
Yes

No idea of what the Pros do.

probably in files (also called source files, or simply text files), but there are also special websites like http://code.openhub.net/ , there exists also a wiki entry about this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snippet_%28programming%29 or they print them out and place them above their bed, who knows...
