Project files no longer open on startup

Is it intended behaviour to not load projects on startup now? (new version 4.0.26)

Previously I just ran 4ed inside the directory with the project file, but now it seems you need to manually load the project after the editor is open with ALT-x + "load project"


Edited by James Payne on Reason: Initial post
This is a setting in config.4coder, are you using the same config file you used in the last build?
Yeah same config file, just launching with -W as the only parameter


project.4coder is just:

1
2
3
4
5
extensions=".c.cpp.h.hpp";

fkey_command_linux[1] = {"./build.sh", "*compilation*", false};

open_recursively=true;

Hmm... that's odd. Could you email me at [email protected]? I'd like to dig a little deeper and maybe have you send me some files.

Also, could you launch 4coder where it should be able to find the project and post the entire *messages* buffer right after launching? It prints some information that might be helpful to figuring this out.
