- You set prefs for individual MUI programs from within the program now.
- Since AMosaic has no menu item for this, the best way would be to change
- your global prefs to provide the window border gadget which calls up MUI
- prefs. Once you've got that set, every MUI program will have a little
- gadget up by the depth and minimize ones that will run MUI prefs. So run
- AMosaic and call up the prefs, and stuff you change will affect only AMosaic.
