Summary: Provide default settings for preferences
Initial Comment:
Currently the systems default preference settings are coded in the
application itself. This means that when the user first starts the
application no preference files exist. The user therefore has to know
what preferences they can set.
It would be better if, when the application starts these preferences
are looked for, and if necessary created. Thus when the user selects
the edit preferences menu item they will not be presented with a
blank sheet.
If we make one of the preferences a version number then we only
need to check the version number. If it is equal to or higher than the
version we are execuring then we do not need to set the
preferences. If it is lower, we can call a routine to add any additional
preferences since that version.
