Hi Burr, actually all the stuff you mentioned was spot-on except for the location of the file.
Definitely it makes it easier for me to add in special settings to that file only rather than cluttering up the UI for every single thing.
I wish that I could put the file in the location where you expected it (in MoI's main folder in \Program Files\), except Windows does not allow users with limited access accounts (like not set up as a machine administrator) to write any data into that folder. So to support limited users in XP, (and also just regular users in Vista now), I write that file by default into that other location which a limited rights user is allowed to write into.
You can actually move the moi.ini file into the main program folder where MoI.exe is if you want to - MoI will check for it there first and use it from there if it finds it. That's also what you need to do if you want to bring MoI along with you on a USB stick and also bring along your settings.
