- Its actually quite easy. Drag out a program folder, and go to the
- "Session" prompt, pick the session you desire (ie, windowed, DOS, etc)
- and then go to the "Program" page and put a single period in the program
- path/name. This will cause a default to be used, and should work unless
- you've radically changed the environment settings (ie, path, libpath).
