- After you set your settings in f1-set, do you then hit "m" for
- "make settings permanent"? The business about being in the /nb4
- program directory applies only to indexing in Orbis, as far as I know.
-
- Some "pre-release" versions of NB4 had various functions unable
- to be made permanent, despite what the prompt told you.
