export/import prefs #141

is there any way to export or import preferences?

rpwoodbu commented 7 years ago

Not currently. I see that Secure Shell (which is where our hterm terminal emulator comes from) has "Save Backup" and "Restore Backup" options. So it probably isn't too hard to graft that onto Mosh for Chrome.

Be advised that your preferences sync to your Google account through Chrome Sync (if you have that turned on), and will appear automatically on all Chrome browsers signed in with the same account. This may suit your needs. But a proper import/export feature seems like a good thing to have.

Good to know that they sync, that's exactly what I needed to know

I added a note to this effect in a new section in the main documentation called "Tweaking terminal preferences".
