Pref files

relic · August 7, 2011, 19:31

I started a new character in 3.3.0, changed options as I want them, and saved them. In order to get these options for all characters, I figured that I would name the file something that would be loaded by Angband at startup, you know like it used to do. So I named it pref-mac.prf which has worked before. But starting another new character these prefs were not loaded. Am I doing something wrong? The pref file is saved in /user/library/preferences/Angband in OSX. Are pref files there read and loaded by Angband?

I could manually copy from one file to another but I refuse to believe that such a clumsy method should be necessary.
