[Qgis-user] Default QGIS project file to open plugins automatically

[Andreas Neumann]

 Hi Markus,

 Sorry to hear that version 1.6 does not support the --optionspath yet. 
 Would it be an option to use QGIS 1.7 (to be released these days)? I am 
 sure that QGIS 1.7 has the optionspath parameter. If you need help on 
 customization of QGIS it may be useful to directly ask the folks from 
 Solothurn (Cedric Möri), the author of the presentation where I sent you 
 the link.

 They probably have many of the same issues that you have, being a QGIS 
 installation with many clients (50-100) that need customization.

 Good luck,
 Andreas
