<h1>Configurations dialog</h1>
Configuraitons stores the complete setup of a SDRangel instance:
- Workspaces
- Device sets
- Features
It also stores the geometry of all windows and workspaces so that the entire aspect of a configuration of the instance can be saved and retrieved. A default configuration is saved at program exit and retrieved at the next prograp start. Use the `--scratch` command line option to skip the retrieval of the default configuration and start with an empty setup.
