TITLE           Save properties

OCCURRENCE      In 'Properties' menus

DESCRIPTION     Saves the userdefined setup (colours, fonts, ...) to property files.
                These files are located in the directory pointed to by the
                environmentvariable $ARB_PROP (which defaults to '~/.arb_prop' in your
                home directory). See also LINK{arb_envar.hlp}.

NOTES           To reset ARB to it's defaults simply remove one/all *.arb
                files from the directory '~/.arb_prop'

                The files in ~/.arb_prop are textfiles. Advanced users may
                remove or change single sections or entries.

                You can hand over your properties to another user by giving him
                your property-files.

SECTION GENERAL NOTES ABOUT PROPERTIES

    Most settings you can change in ARB are saved either

          - to properties or
          - with your database.

    Nevertheless some setting are not stored anywhere (some intentionally, some by mistake).

    Please notify LINK{arb@arb-home.de} if you think

      - a setting should be saved in properties (instead of always setting
        the same useless default value)
      - a setting should be saved in the database instead of properties (or
        vice versa)

EXAMPLES        None

WARNINGS        Better make backups of these files before you change them.

                Be careful with ARB_MERGE: It uses the same properties as ARB_NT!

BUGS            No bugs known
