Hello again :),

When tecnoballz has been launched with --verbose option, it is recorded
and every subsequent run will be verbose. The only way I found to
disable the verbose option is by editing by hand the config file.

Actually, I'd even question the relevance of saving this option. It's
not a user preference like the language or the user names. It's more
like a one-time usage to debug something.

Regards,
Celelibi

Hello,

I agree with you that saving the verbose option is not really useful.
Indeed the only way to revert --verbose is by editing the config file.
Nevertheless this looks like an intended design decision. I will ask the
developer about this when he responds to your other bug reports, but
don't expect a resolution for your problem. It might be "wontfix".

Regards,

Markus

If saving the setting is a design choice for whatever reason,
implenting a --no-verbose should be reasonable.

Whether it's reasonable or not is up to upstream to decide. I'll accept patches
but only when upstream is willing too.
