i was editing the config file to setup my shares when a nice idea came to mind to help speed up and simplify the editing process.

the $home tag is a nice feature. what if we could create our own refrences. ie

<refrences>
<$computer1>smb://administrator:password@workgroup/home</$computer1>
<$relax1>xbms://192.168.0.101:1400</$relax1>
</refrences>

<video>
<bookmark>
<name>computer 1 samba</name>
<path>$computer1/my videos/</path>
</bookmark>
</video>

just thought that could speed things up. that way you wouldn't have to retype all that info for evey section.

i must say its a nice idea
dont know if users would understand this however
and thank god for copy&paste which already makes this easier.

that would be huge! defining your own variables or references would make updating to the latest version so much easier...
