Hello
If I have created a Template such as MyDefault1, is there a way of having 4Pane start with this Template.
Or is there a default template in some other way.
If it's mentioned in documentation I'm sorry I've missed it, but will keep looking.
Thanks
John
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
On starting, if 4Pane finds its config file, it will use it. It searches in sensible places, e.g. ~/.4Pane, ~/.config/4Pane/.4Pane, but you can also point to a particular config file when you open 4Pane: 4Pane -c /path/to/MyDefault1. However 4Pane does check that the file is 'genuine', so be aware of that when creating your template (better would be to repurpose a current .4Pane).

Hi,
What do you mean by a template?
On starting, if 4Pane finds its config file, it will use it. It searches in sensible places, e.g. ~/.4Pane, ~/.config/4Pane/.4Pane, but you can also point to a particular config file when you open 4Pane: 4Pane -c /path/to/MyDefault1. However 4Pane does check that the file is 'genuine', so be aware of that when creating your template (better would be to repurpose a current .4Pane).
Alternatively there is a facility to create a conf file: see https://www.4pane.co.uk/manual/Export.htm
I hope that helps. If not, please explain what it is you want the template to do.
Regards,
David
