Page History
By default, panagenda MarvelClient creates and maintains a number of files and folders in its so called Working Directory:
On Microsoft Windows, the MarvelClient Working Directory is to be found in the operating system users' Windows profile %os_local_app_data%, which is either
C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\panagenda\marvel (on Windows Vista/7)
or
C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Application Data\panagenda\marvel
Within the marvel directory the following files are located:
Actions.xml = list (on Windows XP)
On Mac and Linux, %os_local_app_data% is resolved as /tmp, resulting in the Working Directory being /tmp/panagenda/marvel.
MarvelClient maintains the following files in its Working Directory:

actions.xml | List of all actions that apply or applied to the specific user. |

By default, this file is synchronized with the MarvelClient Configuration database at every client start, in the background whilst the client is up and running (Windows only), and during client shutdown.
