Description Randy DeFauw 2001-10-08 20:28:54 UTC 
I'm using the last approved Q-build (9-27 I think) on WinNT 4.0.  I mounted two 
different output filesystems, then went to Tools | Options to set the compiler 
target directories.  I created two new External Compilers.  I used the drop-
down in the options panel to set the target directory for both compilers.  I 
closed the Options dialog.  Then, when I opened the Options dialog again, both 
compilers indicated that the target directory was <not set>.  

I marked this as P1 because it effectively prevents me from compiling.  If this 
is indeed a bug and not just something I'm doing wrong, I don't see how this 
could be marked as a Q-build.  Not being able to set an output directory is a 
show-stopper in my book.

I followed steps in dev#20011008 and everything worked well. Can you
verify this in the latest dev build if you can and if needed reopen
this issue, thanks in advance.

Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> verified.
