eric3.Preferences

Package implementing the preferences interface.

The preferences interface consists of a class, which defines the default values for all configuration items and stores the actual values. These values are read and written to the eric3 preferences file by module functions. On Windows the data is located in the registry, everywhere else it is stored in a file in a subdirectory of the users home directory. The individual configuration data is accessed by accessor functions defined on the module level. The module is simply imported wherever it is needed with the statement 'import Preferences'. Do not use 'from Preferences import *' to import it.
