[Therion] Modular Reuse of thconfig Layouts

[Bruce Mutton]

I have three caves entered into a folder tree as a hierarchal system, that
can be plotted in a couple of variations for each individually or as a whole
system.  I find that I have two thconfig files for each combination that
produce all of the types of maps I would like at this stage.  This makes a
total of eight thconfig files, each of which is getting quite large, but
which are largely identical except in a few details.  It's becoming
difficult to manage these, and keep the bits that I'd like to be identical
updated.

 

I suspect that, like most of the rest of Therion, I can make use of a
standard thconfig file that contains most of my favourite settings, allowing
my eight specific thconfigs to be very concise.

 

I have played around a bit, trying to save layouts in different files and
using lines like;

 

copy StandardLayout

 

but 'StandardLayout' only seems to be visible from within the same file.

Have had no luck with 'input', 'source' or 'select'.

 

Probably I'm just missing out a bit of syntax or namespace visibility.

Any suggestions
