Hi Folks,

I decided to go ahead and join the list so that Roice doesn’t have to
keep forwarding me the 5-d cube messages. This seems like a great
bunch of people, and I’m happy to be playing my small part in the
development of the 5-d cube. So far, my contributions have been
mostly in the area of the GUI and a few performance enhancements; I
hope to get to do more work on the real cube stuff in the future, time
permitting.

Roice forwarded me this message from Remigiusz, and I wanted to
provide a bit of extra info about the saved settings feature. For
those who had not yet found this, if you don’t like the default "–
Default –" settings, you can save any other configuration with this
same name, and your new settings will become the new defaults. So
when you click Save As…, just type "– Default – ", and you will
get a new .settings file with your new default settings, which will be
used whenever you start the program. If you later decide to revert to
the original defaults, just delete this file and restart the program.

It sounds like there are a few other UI glitches/requests that we will
hoepfully be able to address in the next iteration (whenever that is),
so thanks for the feedback. Regarding the non-functionality of
Ctrl+Z, I have a wild guess that it might relate to keyboard layouts.
Are you using a standard english keyboard with normal input settings,
or something set up for a different language? Do you know whether you
have the same settings as Michal?

Thanks, and glad to meet you all,

Charlie Nevill
