Hmm. looks like persistence for menus ("E:\Stephe\test.pic"), settings (reduce, snap), and maybe some internationalization? That's a job for Grace.Config_Files: http://www.nongnu.org/Grace/Grace_Home.html, currently only accessible via the CVS web interface: http://savannah.nongnu.org/cvs/?group=grace Be aware that Grace.Config_Files is not yet fully implemented, but it may meet your needs. And it will be more portable and user-friendly than the Windows Registry. Feel free to contribute! -- -- Stephe
