Thanks for the info re time zone spacing, Bill. I agree, simple cosmetic
changes are not worth a lot of code re-writing. I had a hunch that might be
it.

I get "STARTUP.MAR" added to the drop-down menu.

That link took me to a web page with only:

0002 !
factory.mar Factory default settings !
startup.mar Initial position !

I did a Guide search for marks.nam, but couldn't find the file. I suspect
there's more to it than the above. I don't want to lose any of my mark
files. Help?
