[Eric] a couple of bugs in preferences?

[Caleb J. Howard]

Hi folks!

So, I've been looking through the preferences.  Forgive me if these 
issues are known, or my misunderstanding.

in snapshot 20061112:

- Setting the Project Preferences option to "Automatically compile saved 
forms", "Load session upon opening", and "Save session upon closing" 
fails to remain set after I close and reopen eric4.

- manually setting those options by text-editing  the file: 
~/.config/Eric4/eric4.conf:

    ...
    [Project]
    AutoCompileForms=1                           <-  changed from 0 to 1
    AutoCompileResources=0
    AutoIncludeNewFiles=0
    AutoLoadDbgProperties=0
    AutoLoadSession=1                              <- changed from 0 to 1
    AutoSaveDbgProperties=0
    AutoSaveSession=1                               <- changed from 0 to 1
    Colour\Highlighted=#ff0000
    Colour\VcsAdded=#0000ff
    Colour\VcsConflict=#ff0000
    Colour\VcsModified=#ffff00
    Colour\VcsUpdate=#00ff00
    CompressedProjectFiles=0
    SearchNewFiles=0
    SessionAllBreakpoints=1                       <- changed from 0 to 1
    XMLTimestamp=1
    ...

... makes the UI toggles show those settings on restarting eric4, but 
doesn't seem to actually do those actions.

- Setting the Editor->General->Reopen automatically option doesn't 
reopen any of my files.  The preference option does get saved to the 
eric4.conf file, though, unlike the above options.

 From Detlev's most recent reply to my RFEs, I was expecting eric4 to 
reload my project on launch, and reopen my editor sessions as well, but 
even with these preferences set, I get an empty eric4 when I start.  I 
can open the recent projects alright, but the editor window remains empty.

I assume I am doing something wrong, or have a broken install, or need a 
newer snapshot, or am missing something crucial.

Thanks!
