Hi, I've been using gimp for a while, and made quite a few customisations throughout the whole user interface (rearranging, resizing docks & windows, adding new ones), custom shortcut keys and mouse commands etc.

I would like to store these custom settings in a neat little package, so if i have to reinstall my system or simply install gimp to a new machine, I could restore my customised user interface without much hassle.

So the question is:

Where exactly are gimps config files are stored especially the ones containing the examples I made?
(I have found a few answers to this question just by using google but none of the files mentioned in the results actually contained any of theese information.)


I also have a few smaller unrelated questions:
-I would like to map functions to mouse button 4 and 5 (undo, redo) but i have no idea how to map theese keys.
-Is there a way to set up a shortcut for "previous color used" and "previous brush used", so i wouldnt have to manually switch colors an brushes all the time?

I'm using the windows 64 bit version of the 2.7.5 beta from Partha.

On Seven/Vista, everything is in "C:\users\{your-id}\.gimp-2.7", you can save the whole tree and restore it elsewhere (another userid, another computer...)

Thanks. Copying the whole directory makes sense, since its not a big amount of data anyways. I just cant figure out which files specifically hold the shortcut keys and other custom inputs and the dock arrangements... but I shouldn't care I guess lol.

Anyone knows an answer to the other questions?
