I'll leave these comments here in case @MatthiasWM decides to look into it. I tried not to bother you, but I still cant figure out runtime prefs. If these are a memory mapped file, they are an excellent way to have an IPC method for FLTK apps. ATM, I have no idea how they are implemented.

\todo (Matt) Before the release of 1.4.0, I want to make a further attempt to write a preferences file smarter. I
plan to use a subgroup of the "runtime" preferences to store data and stay accessible until the application
exits. Data would be stored under ./$(vendor)/$(application).prefs in RAM, but not on disk.

\todo (Matt) I want a way to access the type of the root preferences (SYSTEM, USER, MEMORY), and the state of
the file access (OK, FILE_SYSTEM_FAIL, PERMISSION_FAIL, etc.), and probably the dirty() flag as well.

\todo (Matt) Also, I need to explain runtime preferences.

\todo (Matt) Lastly, I think I have to put short sample code in the Doxygen docs. The test app ist just not enough.
