Things you may want to change/adjust.
All settings are made by dialogs found in the Launchers
"System" - "Settings" menu.
These dialogs also provide individual help (Via the help button).

Look & Feel:
    ST/X supports multple viewStyles,
    which more or less mimic existing Window Systems.
    The viewStyle can be changed via the Launchers
	'Settings - ViewStyle'
    Dialog. 

Keyboard & Shurtcuts:
    The default keyboard mapping is described in the
    Keyboard.wsp workspace.
    If you dont like it, have a look (and edit)
    the 'keyboard.rc' file.

Language:
    For lack of resources and language competence,
    only German and English are fully supported.
    Some rudimentary French, Italian etc. is present,
    but definitely not complete.
    Notice, that the existing translations are only provided to
    give a hint on how it is done.
    All language strings are found in the 
	"lib*/resources/*.rs"
    files; there you will find per-class translations.
    If you add or fix anything there, we would be very happy,
    if you'd send us your changes - we will incorporate them
    into the next release.
    Make sure that your chosen font is able to display those characters
    (especially if you choose greek, russian or a far-east language).

Misc settings:
    Tabs can be changed to be either multiples of 4 or 8;
    See the Launchers "Settings - Editing" Dialog.
    Keyboard Focus behavior and some performance related
    drawing options are adjusted in "Settings - Misc".

Tools:
    For the File- and SystemBrowser, new versions are being
    developed; by default, these are (still) disabled.
    Toggle the corresponding buttons in the "Settings - Tools"
    Dialog.
    (actually, the NewSystemBrowser seems now mature enough,
    to be the default browser...)
    Ignore the initial delay, which is due to some support
    classes (refactoring browser) being autoloaded; if you
    save a snapshot image, this pause will happen only once.
