Allow importing of .settings file, and setting Code formatting/snippets folders and default formatting style to be done via Command line
I would like to be able to better automate our onboarding process for new developers by helping ensure their snippets folder, formatting style folder and default formatting style are correctly setup. Additionally we would like to be able to automatically import settings from UNC/source control for them. This reduces the inevitability that something is missed when trying to follow a setup guide we have to additionally maintain. Thanks!

Just thought I'd leave a note here. This is all possible already. There are not buttons for it, but all you need to do is copy the files into their appropriate directories. You can also change where the default directories are located.
For example, I keep all of my options, snippets and styles on OneDrive, and then I have a registry script that I run via powershell that updates the registry to point at the OneDrive folders. That way all of my computers that run SQL Prompt can share and sync settings.

I concur. EVERYTHING in the options dialog should be exported/imported by clicking on those two buttons.
