Summary of the new feature/enhancement

An option on the drop-down menu to save the current config as the initial config. In particular, the overall window position and size, and which tabs are open, and the current font size/rows/columns since it may be zoomed in/out.

I move the main window around. I resize it. I do the ctrl-scroll to get the font size where I need it. I open my preferred tabs in the preferred order. Then I want to say 'save this, and start here next time'. Not quite the same as 'restore how it was when I exited' (another fine feature).

I see there is an 'export settings' feature. This would be more of an 'export' followed by immediate import, presumably skipping the exported file.
