Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I can't see a way to replicate the customisations that I've made on another machine
Describe the solution you'd like
I'd like to be able to export all settings to a config file that I could load on another machine to have a consistent experience with a mimium of fuss.
Alternatives
Screengrabbing each screen of the UI and the prefs to recreate the same experience. Can't seem to get excited about this though.
