[Gambas-user] Settings component

[Jussi Lahtinen]

OK, I solved this.

I looked these and I didn't get it...
http://gambasdoc.org/help/comp/gb.settings/settings/path?v3
http://gambasdoc.org/help/comp/gb.settings/settings?v3

I tried this:

Dim hS As New Settings
hS.Path = ....


Then I looked at source code.
And the answer is this:

Dim hS As New Settings("/my/path/to/configs/myconf.conf")


Maybe this was quite obvious, but I think it would be nice to have mentioned in
at least one those documentation pages...
