Config files are not updated and hardly honored in 090alpha2. The
current SVN has this functionality in place. I now also track the global
options as well, and I save the options every time any one option is
changed. This will make it nice for those times that swordreader crashes.

I will look into this. When you say it hangs do you mean the app dies?
do you get any error message? or do you mean it stops loading the text
and stops responding. If so my guess is its a deadlock and the current
svn is a bit more robust in this area. So I will try to post a new CAB
tonight since it has quite a few new features since 090alpha2.

Also be sure to check out http://mantis.swordreader.org, it has a
listing of all the known bugs encountered so far and their status. There
are 26 known issues or feature requests. For example your first issue is
logged in mantis ;-)

In Christ,
David Trotz
