Custom boinccmd path is not sticky
Closed this issue · 4 comments
I closed the previous issue too soon it seems. I used the default settings for count-tasks and left the terminal running.
I just had the first 60 minute countdown and I expected to see the next updated stats.
However the program just threw the original complaint about not finding the executable in the standard path.
The program needs to remember where the custom path is and be persistent.

I completely missed that bug. I will work on a fix tomorrow.
The latest commit (beta version 0.4.4) should now allow custom paths to stick. Can you confirm?
The latest commit (v.0.4.5) has the option to set the boinccmd path in a configuration file.
+1 for the addition of the config.txt file for the custom boinccmd path.
Works very well now. Closing issue as fixed.
