Rename dialer data files #126

Closed davidrg closed 1 month ago

davidrg commented 1 year ago

CKW Beta.04 bumps the version number on the data file and adds a bunch of new settings while removing the UI to adjust a bunch of old settings.

This effectively renders the Kermit 95 and CKW dialers incompatible with each other in the SSH settings area and the situation is only likely to get worse over time.

To enable Kermit 95 and CKW to co-exist, the CKW dialer should use different data file names. If CKW data files can't be found but K95 ones can, copy the K95 data files to the new CKW names before opening and upgrading them.

Code to change is here: https://github.com/davidrg/ckwin/blob/e0a2e5df88e2175c0504736cc2c95e871c8217f6/kermit/dialer/kconnect.cpp#L650

Probably filenames can change and we can just use different directory names - "C-Kermit" instead of "Kermit 95"

The decision has been made to switch back to the K95 branding (#287) so this no longer needs to be done.
