[Scid-users] The options.dat file

Hello, I would prefer not to configure my previous settings. But I would not like to wreck anything. Can we use the options.dat file of 3.7 instead of the one shipped with 3.7.1 ? >From what I can see, there is no problem. But should we advise users to do that ? In any case, I renamed the new
