wik and
wikgui are intended to work well as a "portable" applications. This means that they are careful not to write anything to the registry and won't store any configuration files on your computer unless you ask them to. You have three options for storing your configuration data:
- User folder
- Configuration will be stored in the standard host OS location for user data.
Examples: - XP: c:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\WikklyText
- Vista: c:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\WikklyText
- Linux/POSIX: ~/.WikklyText
- Executable folder
- Configuration will be stored in the same location as wik.exe/wikgui.exe
- Other folder
- If you don't like either of these options, you can run wik (or wikgui) like this to specify a location:
wik --cfgpath="c:\My\Folder\Location"
- Tip:
- If you want to run off of a USB drive and not touch the host computer, you'll want to choose either Executable folder or Other location.
