Just to point out that this did not exist on my system until I went to the Preferences tab and saved it- so until then the 'XMLparserRecursion' example couldn't find the file..... which might confuse other starting users as they work through the supplied examples.

It's not a bug. The system has defaults that apply when there is not prefs.xml file. It also makes it easy to go back to the defaults by deleting the file. For example if you lose your password.

I'll have to document it.

You can tell Carl is a true programmer...

"It's not a bug! It's an undocumented feature!" ;)


Anyway, it's good to know that there is a simple way to fix a lost password. I came really close to needing it.
