Application Files

VECTO uses a numbers of files to save GUI settings and file lists. All files are text-based and can be changed outside of VECTO if VECTO is not running.

Settings.json

This file is located in VECTO's config folder. Here all parameters of the Settings Dialog are saved. The file uses the JSON format.

Job / Cycle lists

The job and cycle lists in the Main Form are saved in the joblist.txt / cyclelist.txt files of the config folder.

Both files save the full file paths separated by line breaks. Additionally it is saved whether each file's checkbox is checked or not. "?1" after a file path means the file is checked (otherwise "?0"). However, this information can be omitted in which case the file will be loaded in checked state.

LOG.txt

The tabulator-separated log file saves all messages of the Main Form's Message List and is located in VECTO's program directory. The file is restarted whenever the Logfile Size Limit is reached.One backup is always stored as LOG_backup.txt.
