Many times one needs to reload one or more config files after modifying them outside of Everything
This is especially useful for when you need to mass edit a number of bookmark or macro items, to correct redundant paths, drives etc or even as part of a build system that is used to unify things system wide.
For some time now, I have been making do with, which essentially calls the search command , it discards any recent settings and invalidates recent DB changes, furthermore, it can be prohibitive as the DB has to be
reloaded all over again and this takes a while for large DB files, on top of that local network drives always end up getting rescanned upon a restart.
I thought maybe I could try to automate the GUI window through the dreaded "open..." system dialog via > but apparently that does not apply to settings files such as bookmarks, filters.
So with that being said, I ask if you could provide a means to reload the following files either via a search command or a command line much like how works:This would bring Everything in a similar line to how editing config files work in popular programmes like Visual Studio Code, Windows Terminal, Obsidian, etc etc
Thank you for any consideration on this.
