Hi Guys,
We recently discussed revamping the options pages. A few people have been confused by updating from quite old software and getting 15-20 error messages when launching the new version. I have a short term solution.
Amend the windows installer so that after installtion as a post installation process run the gnubg-cli app and issue a “save settings” command as a process (without a window Is preferable) and then exit. When the cli version is launched it will throw error messages to the console (hidden). Save settings will purge all the deprecated functions prior to the user launching for the first time. This may be a kludge, but it really is the process (launch/save settings) that I am recommending to users right now.
