I already have setup the Appveyor. But I would like to create *.yml for my my documentation/source control. I am not very familiar with *.yml concept. Having this file will be good starting point for me.

   The main rule of thumb when authoring YML is using spaces, not tabs.

   We have a working item for generating YML from UI settings. Will deliver it in a week or so.

   Great feature.

   We will backup the Appveyor config.

   *PS: We just have more than 20 projects . If there was a download all ymls would be also great.

   You can use API to iterate through projects and get YAML settings for each of them:
   http://www.appveyor.com/docs/api/projects-builds#get-projects
   https://github.com/appveyor/ci/issues/74

   Sorry man.

   I am to lazy. I just want a button to backup the CI system configuration.*

   * Not urgent but that would be great for us. Such as when we started downloading the yml's we noticed the staff we missed in some projects.
