<![CDATA[Export certain settings (like custom search engines)]]>Is there an (easy) way to export settings from one Opera-Next browser to another installation?

Like settings & exceptions, custom search engines and the experimental settings (the ones not set to "default" at least).

Thanks for any pointers^^

Leave out the session files, bookmark files, and the like.

Not the saved tabs, bookmarks and the like?

An export/import feature would be really nice...

Just copy your user profile folder and paste it over the user profile folder of the different installation. You can find your user profile location in the About Opera page.
