Hi Mike

I think this is a really great idea, with lots of potential.

With so many great new options, there is one feature i would like to see in
Crafty SE. With Crafty SE in wb mode in Arena, it's possible to specify a config
file, such as crafty1.rc or crafty2.rc, under
"Engines/Manage/Detail/Special/ini-file". But apparently Crafty ignores this,
and uses crafty.rc by default. It would be great, if possible, to be able to set
up different .rc files and select the preferred configuration from within Arena,
rather than constantly editing one crafty.rc file.

Regards
Dave
