I saw that ( I did read the help, BTW ), but for some reason it was
unclear to me if that meant that _matching_ hot keys would be replaced
if they came from a config file, or _all_ hot keys would be replaced
if they came from a config file regardless if of the contents of the
config file being imported.  Reading it again, I realize that I missed
the key word _any_ in the sentence.

Not checking the help isn't what I was referring to.  I meant that I'm
too lazy to 1) figure out the format of the ini file (I know, it's
also in the help, but I haven't played with them yet) 2) come up with
an example; and 3) test it when there was someone who had suggested it
who might know the answer.  If I had come across it on my own in the
help and decided to use it, the story would have been different.

I do read the help file, Alan, as the several message I've been
sending with suggestions indicate. :p

Thanks for the answer.

hadn't thought of that.  I'll have to put that on my list of things to
try.

Thanks,
