It is very useful to remember last encoding mode when WaitZar start up.

I agree. Unfortunately, WaitZar on Windows operates under a principle of "not
requiring an install". For example, it should work equally well off of a USB 
memory
stick, CD, and floppy disk. By corollary, it should not "install" anything onto 
your
system.

This falls under the general principle I hold: users should be 10% responsible,
developers 90%. If we try to make things 100% easy for users, they will never be
encouraged to learn more about WaitZar (e.g., the config file, the User's 
Guide...)

Why not just copy WaitZar to a USB drive, and set the relevant field in 
config.txt?
This seems much more portable.... plus, you'll want your own custom mywords.txt
anyway, right?

Yes, this is exactly what WaitZar was designed for.
