Thanks JTD. I will look into that, although I have kinda solved my issue by renaming .jmri to jmri when moving it to Dropbox. But as Dave pointed out, settings folder is still .jmri.
?
It's just that I don't get why the user files are located in a hidden folder by default. If I show hidden folders so that I can get at the .jmri folder from the GUI then it is lost in a sea of other normally hidden linuxy crap that I must pick through. Also when browsing for files within the app (JMRI) hidden folders don't show up, requiring a right click to see them. Just seems odd and an unnecessary hindrance.
