    922This personality is a simplified version of the standard FM/2 interface.
    10 You get two Directory Containers and an optional Drive Tree. You
    11 have a choice in how to split the screen (:hp1.Windows->Tile
    12 backwards:ehp1.) -- vertically or horizontally. The internal windows do
    13 not have titlebars and cannot be moved or sized (the Drive Tree, if
    14 open, can have its width changed by dragging the right edge of the
    15 window).

    831 scan that occurs when you press the plus sign by the drive for the first time. The
    832 advantage is the tree expand is quiker. The disadvantage is startup is slower. Local

     832This is the same

     834The advantage of enabling the scan is the tree expand is quicker.
     835The disadvantage is that startup is slower.
     836The installation default is to enable the scan only for local drives.
     837Slow drives and nonwrite drives are only
     838scanned if they match the drive type(s) you have selected (i.e. if you have a slow virtual drive
    835839you must select both virtual drives and slow drives for it to be scanned on startup).

    837 The :hp6.Rescan tree on media eject:ehp6. section allow you to choose the drive types
    838 where a rescan of the tree container is initiated by ejecting the drive media. This keeps
