Erases pdfpc file on rebuild

Ideally, customizations in the pdfpc file would be kept around.
that would mean you need to detect changes and merge them back into the LaTeX source. Sounds quite impossible to me.
I don't mean merge the notes section. I mean don't erase e.g. the timer section.
can you elaborate a bit more? what is "timer section"?
If I launch pdfpc with -d 20, it adds
[duration]
20
to the config file. Now, if I launch it without -d 20, it still remembers that I'm on a 20 minute timer. If I rebuild my document using pdfpc-latex-notes, this information is erased from the config file. Since [notes] is required to be the last section of the file, pdfpc-latex-notes could search for the section and start writing there (or at the end of the file if the section isn't found) rather than overwriting the whole file.
Interesting, seems behavior of pdfpc has changed since I created pdfpc-latex-notes. Will consider this.
