@Jack: maybe we can add a chapter 'Moving KMyMoney to another

I did manage to find an old email in my KMM folder, and besides my
*.kmy files, there is the configuration file as follows:

That's all you need. There shouldn't be any gotchas in upgrading from
4.6.1 to 4.6.3 (though 4.6.4 is the latest stable release we did a few
weeks ago). Once 4.6.4 hits the distro repositories that shouldn't be
a problem either.

Thomas,

I'm finally working on the docs for the new release, and have one
question here.  Are there any potential reasons NOT to move the rc file
and just reconfigure the new version from scratch?  Are there any
potential dangers due to changed format/version/entries?

(Alan - I will also include mention of the two csv rc files.)

I'll need to check, when I can, but if I remember correctly, on moving from a pre-wizard to the wizard version of the CSV plugin, it might be better not to use the old importer config file. There are additional settings that exist in the new version. If no existing file is found, a new one is created which includes additional parameters.
