Configuration...                               Manual page 162
 This dialog box allows you to set a number of configuration
 options.  Use the cursor keys to move to the option you want
 to change, and use the space bar to change an option.  Press
 Control + Enter to accept the dialog box.

+ Screen colors ------+  This option allows you to choose
|  ( ) Black & White  |  whether or not to use colors.  Use
|  (.) Color          |  the laptop option if you're using a
|  ( ) Laptop         |  laptop computer that can't show
+---------------------+  colors.

+ Screen blank delay -+  This option controls the delay before
|  ( ) 40 minutes     |  the Commander blanks your screen.
|  ( ) 20 minutes     |  Choose Off to keep the screen from
|       ...           |  blanking after the specified delay
+---------------------+  with no keyboard or mouse activity.

   Hint:  To blank the screen instantly, move the mouse into
          the upper right corner.  Move the mouse to the lower
          right corner to keep the screen from blanking.

[x] Show hidden files
  Check this box if you want to see hidden files (which appear
  with a # between the name and extension).

[x] Ins moves down
  When checked, the cursor bar will move down after you select
  a file with the Ins key.

[x] Auto change directory
  When checked, moving the cursor bar in a tree panel will
  change to that directory after a short delay.  If this
  option is not checked, you'll have to press Enter in the
  tree panel to change directories.

[ ] Menu bar always visible
  Normally the menu bar is visible only as long as you're
  selecting an item from it.  Check this option to keep the
  menu bar always visible on the screen.

[x] Auto save setup
 When this option is checked, the Commander will remember
 exactly how you set up the Commander, even after you turn off
 your computer.  Uncheck this option if you don't want the
 Commander to remember so well (in which case you'll need to
 use Shift + F9 to save the settings).

[ ] Left-handed mouse
  Swaps the left and right mouse buttons, which is useful if
  you want the mouse on the left side of the computer instead
  of the right.

[ ] Fast mouse reset
  On some computers (e.g. a PS/2 or COMPAQ with a mouse
  connected to the built-in mouse port) there will be a delay
  of several seconds before the Commander appears after you
  run a DOS command.  Check this option to reduce this delay.
