3 Data and Configuration
3.1 So where is my data stored?
By default your data (everything you type into GTD-Free and configuration and backup files) is stored as XML files in.gtd-free folder in your home directory. You can start GTD-Free by providing other location for the data with -data
command line parameter (see Command line parameters section).
If you are not sure where your default folder is then you have several options:
Try to fine in browser default location, in windows this is C:\Document and Settings\\.gtd-free.
In GTD-Free open Help/About dialog and check for the value ofgtd-free.data in the System Properties tab.
If you are running GTD-Free from jar file check console output.
In data folder you will fined main data file gtd-free-data.xmlwith all your data and ten backup files with copies of
ten last saved main data as gtd-free-data.backupN.xml, where N goes from 0 to 9.
3.2 Automatic or manuals save?
It is strongly recommended to always keep automatic save turned on. You can find this option in File menu.Automatic save will make save each time something changes. It will keep record of ten last saved XML files forbackup purposes.
If automatic save is switched off following will help you save your data:
When closing application a popup dialog will ask you to save any unsaved data.If GTD-Free is terminated due to computer shutdown or log-off process then popup can not be displayed butdata is still saved to file gtd-free-data.shutdown_backup.xml.
