Minor File Preferences Menu Wierdness
Apr 19^th, 2005, 7:43pm

Hi,

there's something slightly wierd in the last line of the pop-up window for setting file preferences ... it seems to describe the path to the file preferences.txt, but appears to overwrite the 'OK' and 'Cancel' buttons. No functionality lost .. you can still click the buttons so the mouse-over works ... looks like it's just a mis-alignment.

Also, a question: What's the little number at the bottom left corner of the new environment mean? It's usually '1', but sometimes '7', or '9', or ....I can't figure out what it means...

TC,

r

p.s. Tabbed files are fantastic ... no more running four copies of processing at the same time.

(Wasn't this a hyperlink before?) on edit: H:\Personal is registered as My Documents, by the way.
