UI customization / Chat settings - Save and reload ?

Hello,

This has been bugging me for a while, I've searched high and low, but I can't seem to find a thread for this...
My problem is this: is there any way to save and then load all the customization we do to the UI. I mean:
- Chat height / width
- Channel colors / number of tabs and custom channels
- Windows size and position (inventory / 4 bags, powers, mail, SG, ...)
- ...

All those seem to be stored per-char somewhere in the ether, so, since I like to create new alts, but hate spending one hour just reconfiguring the whole UI, can somebody point me to the right post / method?
I just need a way to dump the config I did manually and be able to load it automatically on a new alt.
Nothing fancy, no additional tweaks.

Also, towards the same goal, can someone remind me the /command to save all key-binds and reload them on a new alt? (I always customize my block and as for the UI, going to the sub-menu is a pain.)
Pointing towards the right thread would be great too. :-p
(I'll try to check the Wiki later, see if I find it for myself)

Thanks a whole lot.

    Yes, you can. Go into Options -> HUD (to the right of key bindings) -> Save/Load UI -> Apply+OK.

    You may have to change some Controls options, though because it can randomly bug, but it's never a big deal.

    Thanks, that helps a whole lot.
    (If I had searched in-game instead of on the forums :-p)

    You can actually edit the file that calls this info.
    It also holds keybinds.

    CoX had two seperate functions which saved them to two different files.
    CO does it in one.

    Personally, i kinda like the two file accessability.
    But that's just me :cool:
