Comment 1 _ lkramolis 2002-09-27 15:56:05 UTC 
* All settings should be rewritten to new Settings Convertors API,
i.e. PDF Viewer settings, OpenFile Server settings and Search Types.
It also includes reading of old settings format and convertion to new
format.

--

* Current Search Types are project's settings -- not sure if it is
necessary. If decided they are global settings, old project settings
format should be converted to new global settings format.
--

* Current OpenFile mounts filesystem according to java package. This
should be rewritten to new Java API.
Comment 2 _ lkramolis 2002-10-18 17:04:28 UTC 
* Adopt search engine to go through Project structure - it is not
common filesytem, it is mainly driven by nodes/looks.
