Fellow MS Window 3.0 Users:

	I have a short wish list for Windows 3.0. I'm sure these can be
accomplished through some sort of ".ini" or ".pif" file, I just cant
figure out how. Please send any ideas or workarounds to my email
address below. If I get a substantial amount of mail, I'll compile a
large list for the net.

	1) How can I tell the notepad to remember my favorite "page
	   setup"? I always set the left and right margins set to 0.

	2) How come when I print from the notepad, to a printer that
	   is setup to use the print manager, the "PRINTING" message
	   box remains on my screen for a prolonged period of time?
	   If its going to use the print manager, shouldn't the message
	   box go away immediatly?

	3) How can I tell the cardfile program to automatically load
	   a particular card file upon initialization?

	4) How can I tell the program manager to remember to remember
	   the current position for all of my group icons? Even if I
	   "arrange icons" and exit with "save changes", it always
	   re-arranges them then next time I fire up windows.

	5) When I icon-ize procomm (which I have in my "non-windows" group),
	   its icon is the plane DOS icon, not the "telephone/communications"
	   icon that appears in the non-windows group. How can I set it up
	   so that It icon-izes to the "telephone/communications" icon?

	Thanx,
		...steve...
