Config Files Limitations

[gray]

It appears that Astrobe for RP2350 as well as RP2040 have a limit regarding the number of configuration files in the same directory (nine?). I couldn't find any documentation about this, but I may have missed it.

All files are recognised and correctly listed in the menu. When attempting to select a file down in the list, beyond the limit, I see different effects. Either:

1) another configuration file is silently selected, without error message, or

2) an error dialogue pops up: "Tools.ini is not a valid configuration file."

Not sure which happens based on what conditions, but it seems to be related to how some of the files are named.

I think the enforcement of such limit could be more graceful. But more important: is it possible to raise the limit, please?

Internally the menu items are ordered with the single digit 0..9. Hence only the first ten items in a folder should be displayed. If the folder contains more than ten valid items selecting item 10, 11, 12 etc. will result in the config file numbered 1 being loaded. This problem will be fixed in the next maintenance release.

For consistent results, now and in the future, store related configuration files in their own folders, with no more than ten in each folder.
