Module config
Functions for saving/loading config data
This module is a lua script (config.lua), you need to explicitly load it
with require('config')
Functions
| create (default) | Create a new config instance, filename will be determined automagically |
Class config
| config.data | Get/Set the data to store to configuration |
| config:create_from_menu (m) | Create a new config instance from a menu structure, filename will be determined automagically |
| config:load () | Load the config data from file (by executing the file) |
| config:saving () | Called right before config data is saved to file, override this function to update your config.data when the config is being saved |
| config:save () | Manually save the config data to file (data is saved automatically when the ML backend does it's config saving, so calling this function is unecessary unless you want to do a manual save). |
