- This sounds suspiciously like the problem I was having with
- font downloading a while back. I found that saving
- to NBcustom.set after altering certain defaults (though
- not most) resulted in the addition of new lines of code
- controling the parameter, rather than the overwriting
- of the existing line controling the default. At least
- that was my explanation for the discovery that there were
- multiple lines of code that were identical except for
- the value defining the default. In such a case, it
- is the last line that actually defines the default. Deleting
- the unwanted lines solved the problem.
