[Pan-users] Feature Req: Pan Config Backup

[John J. LeMay Jr.]

I realized tonight that it would be nice to have a feature that would allow Pan
to backup it's own configuration to a file. This would come in handy here when
I manage to corrupt my Pan config or when a CVS version has some bug that kills
something or another. Of course I don't expect it to backup everything, but
server names, a list of subscribed groups, personal settings like sig files,
and info on fonts and window layout would be nice. 

I know there is only a couple of places where this stuff resides, but I thought
it sounded simple enough to implement and could be helpful to the "newbies" or
people like me that can't always remember what to keep when rebuilding a
machine. I thought a "Backup" entry under the "Tools" menu looked like the
right place.
