Yes, I too have wliniedit and it is a neat little program but the point is
you shouldn't need another program to change settings in Writelog. It should
be done within the program. And if a necessary line is missing from the ini,
as it was in my case with AutoSave, wliniedit doesn't tell you what to add
or even that it is an option. What could be easier than to open a dialog box
in WL and click a button or make a value entry. It's done all the time in
most Win apps.
