Re: Working lp5250d last week, now refuses

[Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hmmm.. not sure what you mean... I'm using the current sources from CVS!
lp5250d doesn't appear to utilize the "config stuff".

Actually, I prefer it that way.  Yeah, I can use the config stuff, and it
works...   but I get the occasional weird crash with the "config stuff"
that I have yet to really trace down.   

I find using the new "config stuff" to be cumbersome, even when I'm not
getting crashes.  It seems more complicated than the -s -t, etc style
command-line switches.  (maybe thats just because I'm not used to it...)

Sure, its nice to be able to "save" my configuration options, but...  a 
simple shell script or even an alias does that nicely without this whole
complicated configuration mess.

Please don't take this as negative criticism.  I'm a big fan of your work
on this project, and I use this emulator every day.  I guess the whole 
config file option wasn't to my taste.
