   Although I am using the windows build and in consequence don't
bother with the command line one thing I do like is to maintain the
same default settings for almost all of my scenes. It is comforting to
know that when I type something into a scene file and hit the render button
I pretty much know exactly how it will appear. If you play with a bunch
of command line options every time you render a scene you are not going
to be as certain a particular piece of code will work the same in every
scene or each time you render the same file.
  I like continuity. About the only thing I set differently is the render
resolution and the aa settings whether on or off and what level. These
are all contained in an ini file and can be choosen from a drop down menu.
Life is tough in the windows version :)
  Even when I was using v2.2 in dos I had my favorite .def files I used
repeatedly and they were pretty much short cuts to the way I use the windows
version now. This was before any kind of .ini file was supported by the
program.
