[Mldonkey-bugs] [bug #13198] *.ini files ought to be more crash resistant

[spiralvoice]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #13198 (project mldonkey):

Patch #4297 introduces a tar.gz backup of all ini files in
directory old_files on core shutdown. Per default the last 10
backup generations are kept so recovering from these crash
situations will be less painful.
I would close this bug report having this patch, any objections?


4297: Create ini file backups on shutdown
Note: file_sources.ini is never saved, it makes no sense to keep this file.

New options:

* backup_options_format, default "tar.gz", "zip" can also be used

* backup_options_delay, default 0
How often (in hours) should a backup of the ini files be written into
old_config.
A value of zero means that a backup is written only when the core shuts
down.

* backup_options_generations, default 10
Define the total number of options archives in old_config.

Command save got two new parameters:
* "save all" saves options, sources and creates a ini file backup
* "save backup" speaks for itself;-)
