Hi. My old laptop died (well, it stopped seeing Wifi, so it's dead to the outside world), so I bought a new one and installed OOTP on it. Installing the license worked fine. I had backed up my saved_games directory, so I brought that over to the new machine, and everything is working as I had hoped. Easy peasy.

One thing, though. I've put a lot of time over the months since version 26 came out, in customizing things like Views and Filters and Shortlists and I forget what else. I go through that every time there is a new release. Is there a way to bring those definitions over from my old machine to the new one, and avoid having to manually recreate them?
