A year or so ago, I wrote in asking how to make Pegasus' write new
mail screen area stay maximized when I opened it to compose a letter.
No one was able to come up with any fix, nor any reason my version of
Pegasus was doing or not doing this. My older versions had always worked
like that so I was puzzled.
I seem to remember some numbers in a
portion of the, I believe, "PMAIL.INI" portion of the Pegasus file.
Setting the proper numbers was difficult and didn't really work, anyway.
It had to be done manually and I was advised not to worry about it
because it was tough to hit the proper setting so the screen would stay
maximized when opening Pegasus to write mail (something about a 'hairy edge' or similar). Now they are set to:
Application window rectangle = -4 -4 1288 776
Editor window default width and depth = 1280 672
Well, I don't know
what or if I changed something inadvertently but now when I open Pegasus
to compose mail, the writing area is maximized upon opening and stays
that way every time I've done this for a few weeks now. I would like to
make a copy of the portion of the "PMAIL.INI" file to save in case I
start having sizing trouble again. Right now I have the entire
"PMAIL.INI" file copied and saved. Would it be better
to just save the portion of that file that relates to the write new mail
screen staying at its maximum size and not overwrite the entire file if
I ever need to do it?
Can someone please tell me what I should copy and save for future use? Saving the
entire file? Or if this is even the best way to preserve the settings I
am using right now? Thanks for any info!
