Hi Didier

~/.config/quickly/templates/builtins/

looks like it may solve my -t toolkit add  problem

For your information I routinely run

quickly create ubuntu-application <project-name>
quickly -t toolkit add nolaunchpad # removes launchpad integration
quickly -t toolkit add jsonfile # replaces couchDB by a json config
file in ~/.config/<project-name>

Then the resultant project runs on a windows pc!

I'm assuming from earlier descriptions that I move nolaunchpad and jsonfile to
~/.config/quickly/templates/builtins/store
then my visual basic killer workflow becomes

quickly create ubuntu-application <project-name>
quickly add nolaunchpad
quickly add jsonfile  ?

Its a pity that commandsconfig is going. It seems to me an obvious
solution to the edit opens too many files problem is a section in
commandsconfig something like

[edit]
# open all files
#files=project,projectlib,tests,help,project hooks,template hooks
files=project

Have you looked at /dev/shm for speed? A use that may work is the
first time quickly is run in a session it copies all templates into
/dev/shm and sets an environment flag. All future quickly calls then
read /dev/shm, this complicates template writes a little e.g. quickly
quickly, which need to rewrite the /dev/shm cache.
