4039	Bool vs. int inconsistency in config files	egmont		"Up until 3 years ago (commit c4550374b2c and a few followup ones) mc used to store config file entries like

    shell_patterns=1

but then it was changed to

    shell_patterns=true

The switch was incomplete, the ""[Layout]"" section still contains integers, e.g.:

    menubar_visible=1

resulting in an inconsistent use of booleans in the config file.

([!HotlistConfig] -> expanded_view_of_groups is also an integer instead of boolean, but see #4038 for that.)"	defect	closed	minor	4.8.24	mc-core	master	fixed					no branch	committed-master
