I would like to move HE to my laptop for when I'm on vacation.  I installed it initially on my home desktop in "portable" mode knowing I would need to do this one day, but I'm not sure how to copy the settings from one PC to another so I can have all my options/customizations (key shortcuts, syntax color schemes, etc.) on the laptop? 

At first I thought I would only need to copy the hippoedit.config file over to the laptop installation (in the program directory), but it didn't show my customizations.

How would I do this?

Thanks!

Just want to add that it is not possible to copy license.dat from one PC to another one. You need to re-register (enter your license key) in second machine too.
The only way to avoid this, if you initially install HE on flash (remote) drive. In this case license.dat would be bound to it.
