Re: [guide-user] Editing captions

Hi Bill,

I just can't seem to get this to work, I'm probably doing it wrong. I edit
the lines, save startup.mar, exit Guide, re-open Guide, but the change
isn't there. As an example, I open Babylon01.mar, make some changes, go
into startup.mar, edit the 1 to 2, save startup.mar, but it doesn't seem to
take.

Being 76 and operating with a brain that's approaching 94 isn't easy! >;->
