I can handle this method.

Have some quick questions...

I have some questions about the internal storage. These options, most of them
if not all, will be appPersistant. Where will the information be stored? I
know that the AppPers class takes care of initializing one instance and such.
But, my question is, is their some global repository of configurations data?
or should I query the dialog (yuck)?

I've not looked around too much as of yet, but i'll be needing some place to
start.

And on a different note...
Is there a running features/wish list with the priorities?
I heard that there are vi keybindings? Any help pointing me in the right
direction.

Thanks
