Feature request.
Posted: Wed Dec 13, 2017 1:09 am
Hi, I am a new user of codelite, running Win7.
I would like to request the ability to set the default path of the workspace.
It currently uses %userprofile%, however, I do not use profiles.
I have my compilers on one drive letter, and my code/projects on another, neither of which is the windows drive.
I have many home made tools that I wish to migrate from VS to codelite.
However, every time I create a new workspace it defaults to %userprofile%, and I have to navigate to where I am working.
I had thought I had simply missed the setting, but have been informed it does yet exist.
My thought is either a setting in a config file.
Or an environment setting such as %CodeLite_Path% which if present and set would override %userprofile%.
The former is more direct, yet I do not know how hard to implement, or what else it might effect.
The latter seems a smaller change that leaves existing default behavior untouched.
While I can figure out how to do this on my own, making my own private fork, I was advised that making a feature request would be the better approach.
Thank you for what is so far, a great program.
Janus.
