## Using the HotJavaTM Browser Menus

Look here for information about HotJava menu items.

Choosing a menu item followed by ... displays a dialog box or a new page in the HotJava Browser.

File Menu
  Clone Window
    Starts up a new HotJava Browser window displaying the current page.

    If the Clone Window menu item is disabled, HotJava is running low on memory.

  Open
    Displays the Open File dialog, from which you can select a document to open on your local system. This dialog is a standard file chooser dialog for your system.

    If the Open menu item is disabled, HotJava is running low on memory.

  Save
    Displays the Save Document dialog, so you can specify a location in which to save the currently displayed HTML document. The saved file includes the HTML format tags, so it does not look exactly the same as what you see displayed in the browser. This dialog is a standard file chooser dialog for your system.

    You can also save a link or an image by pressing the right mouse button over the desired link or image to display the HotJava Commands pop-up menu, then choosing Save this Link or Save this Image.

  Print
    Displays the Print dialog, which varies depending on your system.

    The size and style of the printed text depends on the Print Typeface and Print Type Size settings on the Display Preferences page. Note, however, that if the page cannot be printed using the specified Print Type Size without clipping wide text, such as tables or preformatted HTML text (e.g. code samples), the print type size will be scaled down so that all the text fits on the printed page. You might want to try printing pages that are scaled too small in Landscape mode. Printing in Landscape mode means more text can fit on each line, so scaling down of type size is less likely to be necessary.

    For Windows 95 and Windows NT, you'll see the standard Windows Print Dialog. This lets you specify:

    - Name of the Printer to print to, and properties associated with that printer
    - An option to print to a file
    - The Print Range, which is always the entire current Web page. No matter how large a Web page is, it's considered to be one page. Therefore the entire Web page is printed, even if it results in many physical pages.
    - Number of copies to print
    - An option to collate multiple copies

    Refer to your Windows manual for more information.

    On Solaris systems, the Print dialog lets you specify:

    - Number of Copies to print
    - Name of the Printer to print to or the PostScript File to create
    - Title for your Banner Page (the cover sheet)
    - Any desired Print Command Options used with your standard print command (which is typically lp). For example, you can specify "no banner page" by typing `-o nobanner` in the Print Command Options field.
    - Paper Size: Letter (8.5 x 11 in.), Legal (8.5 x 14 in.), Executive (7.25 x 10.25 in.), or A4 (210 x 297 mm.)
    - Orientation, to specify Portrait printing (where the long side of the paper is vertical, like most books), or Landscape (the long side of the paper is horizontal)

    The Print menu item is equivalent to the Print button .

  Send Mail
    Displays a form you can use to send email, optionally including the URL or HTML source for the current page.

    Unless you hold down the Shift key while choosing the Send Mail menu item, (to bring up the Send Mail form in a separate HotJava Browser window), the Send Mail form becomes your current page. Therefore, the "current" page referenced on the Send Mail form is actually the previous page. You can return to that page using the Back button.

    Fill in the To field with the destination email address, and type in your message in the large Message area. To send your mail to multiple people, separate the email addresses with spaces or commas.

    Click on the Include URL button to add the URL (the Web page "address") of the current page to the Message area. This is a convenient way to tell somebody about a cool Web page you found.

    Select Attach HTML to add the HTML source of the current page as an attachment to your email. You won't actually see the HTML source in the Send Mail form, but the receiver of the email will see it as an attachment when the message is sent.

    Select Message in HTML if the text of your Message is formatted in HTML (for example, if you copied and pasted HTML source into the Message area, or if you typed HTML into the Message area). This turns the text in the Message area into a separate HTML attachment.

    Use Clear to remove text from both the To field and the Message area.

    Click on the Send button to send the email. A new page is displayed to tell you if the page was sent or if there was an error.

  Close
    Closes the current HotJava Browser window. If there are multiple HotJava windows open because windows have been cloned, only the current window is closed. If this is the only HotJava window, Close quits the HotJava Browser application.

  Quit
    Exits the HotJava Browser, quitting all cloned windows started in the current session.

Edit Menu
  Copy Selected Document Text
    Copies selected text from the currently displayed document to the system clipboard. This menu item is only active when text is selected on a page displayed by the HotJava Browser. You cannot use this menu item to select text from an applet or a type-in field.

  Find in Document
    Displays the Find In Document window, in which you type the text you want to search for in the current page. If the text is found, it is highlighted, and the page scrolls if necessary to display the highlighted text.

    The default search operation is not case sensitive, which means the HotJava Browser does not distinguish between upper- or lower-case text while searching. For example, a request to find the word HotJava will find hotjava, HOTJAVA, HoTjAvA, or any other combination of upper- and lower-case letters.

    You can also choose to do a case-sensitive search, which means the HotJava Browser does distinguish between upper- and lower-case text, and only finds text that matches exactly. Thus a case-sensitive request to find HotJava will only find the string HotJava; it will not find hotjava, HOTJAVA, and so on.

    Use the Find button in the Find In Document window to initiate each search. The search begins either from the currently highlighted text or from the top of the current page if no text is highlighted.
    Use the Clear button to quickly empty out the Find type-in field.
    Use the Dismiss button to dismiss the Find In Document window.
    The Find in Document menu item is equivalent to the Find in Document button .

  Preferences=>
    Use the Preferences menu to display the Preferences pages.

    Each Preferences page has Apply, Reset, and Help buttons on the bottom of the page. Click on Apply to activate any changes you've made. Click on Reset to reset the settings to their last saved state. Click on Help to see the documentation about that particular page. The documentation is displayed in another HotJava window. Use the Back navigation button to return to the current page.

    Follow these links for information about each of the Preferences pages:

    - Display
    - Proxies
    - Viewer Applications
    - Mail
    - SSL and Certificate Settings
    - Applet Security

View Menu
  Reload Page
    Reloads the current page. This is useful if changes have been made to the current HTML source, if a page doesn't load correctly the first time, or to restart an applet that stopped running during a low memory condition. If you're reloading a page that has cached images, you may need to empty the cache before you can pick up changes to those images. See the information on Clear Cached Images, below.
    Reload Page is equivalent to the Reload button .

  Stop Loading
    Stops all loading of the current page. This menu item is available only while a page is being loaded. Only the loading of a page is stopped; if an applet has been loaded and is running, this will not stop the applet. If the HotJava Browser is making a connection when you choose Stop Loading, HotJava still completes the connection attempt.
    Stop Loading is equivalent to the Stop button .

  Clear Cached Images
    Clears images and document backgrounds cached by HotJava. The cache is a location in memory where images that have been loaded are temporarily stored. This increases performance, because it is then quicker to revisit pages since the images don't have to be reloaded over the network. When you use the Reload button or the Reload Page menu item, HotJava looks to the image cache before loading images on a remote page. You'll therefore need to clear the cache (empty it) if you want to force HotJava to reload the images over the network, thereby picking up recent changes.

  HTML Source
    Opens a page in which the HTML source for the current page is displayed.

    The HTML displayed has been parsed and formatted by HotJava. If you'd like to see the original, unformatted HTML source file, follow the link to the original source at the top of the displayed page.

    You can save the HTML text to a file using the File menu's Save item.

  HTML Errors
    HotJava verifies HTML pages, which is useful if you're developing your own page or having troubles displaying a page. When there are HTML errors in the currently displayed page, the HTML Errors menu item is activated.

    Choose HTML Errors from the View menu to display the errors. Alternatively, if you are displaying the HTML Errors button (described below), click on the button when it is active to display the errors.

    The HotJava verifier is very thorough. Some HTML errors listed may be benign errors that don't adversely affect the display of the page in HotJava or other browsers. However, because the verification is so thorough, it's an excellent way to make sure your HTML pages conform to the current HTML specification.

    When the HotJava Browser encounters HTML errors, it tries to recover from the errors in an attempt to display the page as the author intended. If you would like to turn off this error recovery so that HotJava displays the page exactly as the HTML is written, even when errors occur, set your hotjava.parser.strict property to TRUE. (It is FALSE by default.) See Customizing the HotJava Browser for information about the HotJava properties and properties files.

    If you use the HTML Errors feature often to debug HTML pages, you can add a button that becomes active whenever a page is displayed with HTML errors, but which is inactive otherwise. You can then click on this button when it's active to see the errors.

    To add this button, choose Show HTML Errors Button on the Edit->Preferences->Display page, then click Apply.

    If you add the HTML Errors button, it looks like this:

    HTML Errors button when current page has HTML errors
    HTML Errors button when current page does not have HTML errors

  Character Set
    The HotJava Browser supports the Unicode 2.0 character set, and can display both Latin and non-Latin Unicode characters from regions all over the globe.

    To view HTML pages that use an alternate character set, choose that character set from the Character Set menus. Only one alternate character set can be specified at any one time. You can see which character set is currently selected by finding the character set in the submenus with a selected check box.

    If the http server sends information with a page telling the HotJava Browser what character set the page uses, HotJava will automatically choose that character set to display the page.

    In the Japanese character set submenu, you can choose Auto Detect. If you do, the HotJava Browser tries to analyze the page to figure out which of the Japanese character sets it should use.

    To successfully view a page containing an alternate character set, you must have the appropriate system fonts available on your system. Contact your OS vendor to obtain the fonts and instructions on how to install them if necessary.

    Once the fonts are installed on your system, you need to customize the font.properties file in your Java Runtime Environment (which is included as part of the HotJava Browser) to include information about the new fonts. You may need to contact your system administrator or Java developer at your site to help out.

    To make the Java Runtime Environment recognize additional fonts, you need to edit the file <hotjava_install_dir>/runtime/lib/font.properties.<your-locale> to include the appropriate information to describe the new fonts. The Java Runtime Environment ships with a sample of commonly used font.properties files for various locales. You can look in these sample files to find out what you need to add to your font.properties file for those locales. For more information, see the Java documentation on Adding Fonts to the Java Runtime.

  Show Tags
    Toggles the display of the HTML tags used on the current page. This is a convenient way to graphically see how the HTML page is laid out, and is most useful for people developing an HTML page.

    When you move to another page, the Show Tags setting changes to the state it was in the last time that page was displayed (typically Off). When you display a page for the first time, Show Tags is always initially set to Off.

  Delay Loading Applets
    Select this option if you don't want the HotJava Browser to automatically load all applets on a page as it loads the page. You might choose this option to improve the loading time of a page with a lot of applets, or a page with an applet you're not interested in seeing.

    When Delay Loading Applets is selected, you'll see the following icon in place of an unloaded applet:

    Unloaded Applet icon

    The size of the panel containing the icon shows how large the applet will be when it's loaded. Click on the icon whenever you want to load an applet. Watch the message area or the Progress Monitor to get feedback on the progress of the applet loading.

    If you have Delay Loading Applets selected, and you'd like to load all the applets on a page at once, unselect the Delay Loading Applets option and reload the page.

    If the Delay Loading Applets menu item is disabled, the HotJava Browser is running short on memory.

  Delay Loading Images
    Like Delay Loading Applets, choose this option if you don't want to automatically load all images on a page. Choose this option to improve the loading time of a page with a lot of images, or pages with images you're not interested in seeing.

    When Delay Loading Images is selected, you'll see the following icon in place of every unloaded image:

    Unloaded Image icon

    The size of the panel containing this icon shows how large the image will be when it's loaded. Click on the icon whenever you want to load an image.

    If the author of the page specified alternative text for the unloaded image (using the ALT tag), that text will be displayed next to the Unloaded Image icon. This can help you identify whether or not you wish to load the image.

    If you have Delay Loading Images selected, and you'd like to load all the images on a page at once, unselect the Delay Loading Images option and reload the page.

    If the Delay Loading Images menu item is disabled, the HotJava Browser is running short on memory.

    Note that you may see the Unloaded Image icon if HotJava Browser times out when loading an image, even if you haven't selected the Delay Loading Images option. Click on the icon to restart image loading. There are properties in the hotjava.properties file (image.timeout and allimage.timeout) that you can modify. These properties set the amount of time, in milliseconds, before HotJava Browser quits trying to load each individual image, or all images on a page, respectively. See the document on Customizing the HotJava Browser for information about setting properties.

  Ignore Charset Directive
    Sometimes the author of an HTML page, or the server that sends the page, directs the browser to use a particular character set via a meta tag. In this case, the browser is expected to always use that character set, regardless of the Character Set option you have chosen. In the unusual case that the "directed" character set is incorrect, and HotJava Browser can therefore not render the page, you will be prompted with an error message suggesting you try to ignore the character set directive, and then try to display the page using the default (or some other) character set.

    To ignore the character set specified by the page author or server, select Ignore Charset Directive. This option should normally be selected only when you encounter a page that specifies an incorrect character set.

  Display Background Images
    This option is on by default. Disable this option if you don't want to display the backgrounds of pages. This can increase the speed of loading a page, and in some cases, make pages easier to read.

    If you normally display background images, but want to turn the background image off for the current page, choose Display Background Images to uncheck the check box, then redisplay the page using the Reload button or the View->Reload Page menu item.

  Monitor=>
    Use the Monitor menu to display the various monitor pages:
    Progress
      Use this to monitor the progress the HotJava Browser is making when downloading a new page. You'll probably want to hold down the Shift key when choosing this menu item in order to display the Progress Monitor in a new HotJava Browser window. If you don't use the Shift key, the Progress Monitor page replaces the current page, and you can't simultaneously watch the monitor and the loading page.

      When no http connections are being made, the Progress Monitor page shows a set of empty gray outlines (progress bars). When a connection is being made, the first available gray outline changes to a black outline, and the name of the connection the HotJava Browser is trying to make appears above that progress bar. The http connection is typically what takes the most time.

      Once a connection is made, the progress bars show what is being loaded, and how far along the loading process is. When an HTML page is being loaded, a progress bar starts filling with green; when it is completely filled, the page is loaded. Other data types work the same way: red indicates an image is being loaded, blue indicates applet code (class data) is being loaded, and so on. The name of the item being loaded always appears above the colored progress bar.

      When the Progress Monitor again shows all gray outlines, the HotJava Browser is done loading the page and its contents.

      Once you're familiar with the color conventions of the Progress Monitor page, you'll be able to use the miniature version of the Progress Monitor, displayed next to the Duke image in the upper right corner of the HotJava Browser by default.

      You can also click (or Shift-click) on the miniature progress monitor as a shortcut to display the full Progress Monitor page.

    Memory
      This monitor shows the amount of memory the HotJava Browser is currently using, and how much is available. The bar graph represents the total amount of memory allocated by the Java Virtual Machine for Java objects. The red area shows how much memory is currently used, and the green area shows how much is available. The percentage figure in the graph shows the percentage of memory currently used.

      You normally don't need to actively manage HotJava's memory--it automatically frees up and allocates more memory as needed. You can start the process to free up memory at any time, however, by clicking the Start Cleanup button at the bottom of the Memory page.

      When the HotJava Browser gets close to reaching its memory limit, it becomes more aggressive in its attempts to free up memory. At this point, you may notice messages notifying you of HotJava's clean up activities. The messages change color from yellow to red as the HotJava Browser gets closer to its limit. In the most extreme case, the message appears in a popup dialog box instead of in the message area. (The default location of the message area is in the HotJava Browser header, beneath the Place field.)

      The actions that HotJava takes to free up memory in extreme conditions may include the following:

      - All applet and image loading is automatically delayed until a sufficient amount of memory is once again available. See Delay Loading Applets and Delay Loading Images for more information.
      - The Place field is disabled until there is sufficient memory to display a new, potentially memory-intensive page. Similarly, the Clone Window, Open, and Edit Place menu items are also temporarily disabled. The navigation buttons and Places menu list are kept active. If you can use these to move to a smaller page, you should do so.
      - HotJava attempts to close any cloned windows, after asking you if it is ok to close each one.
      Note: The user-visible actions to clear memory are only likely to happen on systems with very low memory resources.

    Thread
      This monitor shows a list of all the threads currently running in the HotJava Browser, their priority, and the thread group they belong to. This is useful for applet developers who want to try out various thread priorities while the HotJava Browser is running. If you're not familiar with Java threads, this monitor probably won't be of interest to you. (See The Java Tutorial for information about writing applets and using threads.)

      Each applet running in HotJava has its own thread group, whether or not it actually creates any threads. All the threads created by the applet belong to that applet's thread group.

      In the Thread Monitor, a thread group (or applet group) is preceded either by +, which means the group is expanded to list all of the threads within it, or by >, which means the thread group can be expanded. Double-click on the thread group to toggle between these two states.

      When you select an applet thread group or an individual thread within an applet thread group, the Kill button is activated to let you kill that thread or thread group. When you select an individual applet thread, you can also use the Raise priority and Lower priority buttons to raise and lower the thread priorities one level at a time.

  Show Console
    Display the Java Console to see output and error messages from Java applets running in the HotJava Browser, as well as messages output by the HotJava Browser itself.

Places Menu
  Use the items on the Places menu to visit new pages, and to mark and revisit pages you've seen before.

  Many of the items in the Places menu are used to manage Places Lists. The Places Lists help you save and manage a collection of links to interesting places found on the Web. To organize these lists, choose Show Remembered Places from the Places menu. This displays the Remembered Places window. It may be helpful to display this window for reference while reading this section.

  The default set of Places Lists is described in the next section, Go to List.

  Go to List
    Use the Go to List pullright menu to revisit a place saved in one of your lists. When a menu item under the Go to List pullright menu(s) starts with **, that item is a List, or a folder within a list, and has a pullright menu of places and folders to choose from.

    Use this menu item (Go to List) to revisit places on your lists. Use Remember Place in List to add places to the lists. Use Show Remembered Places to organize your lists.

    The HotJava Browser initially provides you two to four lists, as described below. The New Places and Cool Places lists can't be deleted, but you can add more lists of your own.

    The default Places Lists are:

    New Places
      This list contains the pages added whenever you choose Remember Place from the Places menu, or whenever you click on the Remember Place button .

      You can keep the pages on this list, or you can move them to other lists. See Show Remembered Places for information about managing your New Places and other lists.

    Cool Places
      Cool Places initially contains a list of useful bookmarks, including the HotJava "What's Hot" page and several pages commonly used to search the World Wide Web. Add or remove items from this list to make it reflect your personal list of Cool Places.

    Legacy Bookmarks List
      This list is only created if you have bookmarks saved from the 1.0 preBeta1 version of the HotJava Browser. It is created the first time you run the HotJava Browser after upgrading from the preBeta1 release.

      Because the bookmarks in 1.0 preBeta1 were only saved in a single list (that is, the bookmarks could not be organized in multiple lists and folders), you may wish to spend some time organizing the items in the Legacy Bookmarks List. For example, you might want to move all the bookmarks into other lists based on categories, and then remove the Legacy Bookmarks List.

    Netscape Bookmarks List
      This list is created the first time you run the HotJava Browser if it finds a list of bookmarks created with Netscape Navigator.

      This page does not get updated if your Netscape bookmarks get updated. However, you can import an updated list at any time using the Import List item in the Remembered Places window File menu.

  Back
    Back takes you back to the previous place you visited. The next time you choose Back, it takes you to the place you visited the time before that, and so on. You can also access the Back menu item by pressing the right mouse button when the pointer is in the HotJava Browser display window.
    Back is equivalent to the Back button .

  Forward
    Forward displays the page viewed prior to choosing Back (or prior to clicking the Back button). Forward only works after Back has been used. You can also access the Forward menu item by pressing the right mouse button with the pointer in the HotJava Browser display window.
    Forward is equivalent to the Forward button .

  Go to Place
    Choose Go to Place to display a pop-up window in which you can type the URL of a new Place to visit. This is equivalent to using the Place field that is normally found in the header or footer of the HotJava Browser, except that the Place field in this window is never overwritten with the current URL when you navigate to a different place. You'll want to use this pop-up window if you disable the default Place field by choosing "None" for the Locator option on the Display Preferences page.

  Go to Starting Place
    Loads the home page you selected using the Start Here menu item or the Display Preferences page. If you haven't specified another home page, the HotJava "What's Hot" default home page is loaded.
    This is equivalent to the Home button .

  Start Here
    This makes the currently displayed page HotJava Browser's home page, or Starting Place. You can display this page at any time by clicking on the Home button or choosing Go to Starting Place from the Places menu.

  Recent Places
    Every time you visit a page, its URL is automatically appended to the bottom of the Recent Places list. When you choose the Recent Places item, a page is displayed that consists of links to all the items on the Recent Places list.

    The Recent Places list is restarted for every HotJava Browser session. You cannot delete a URL from the Recent Places list, or edit it in any way.

  Show Remembered Places
    This displays the Remembered Places window, which you use to organize and revisit places on your Places Lists.

    Lists, (indicated by ), are displayed in the top part of the window; the contents of the currently selected list are displayed in the bottom.

    Each list consists of actual links to places (also known as bookmarks), and folders. Each folder can contain more folders, bookmarks, or both. You can think of a list as a top level folder.

    Double-click on a closed folder (indicated by ) to open it. You can only see and access items in a folder when it is open.
    Double-click on an open folder (indicated by ) to close it in order to preserve space in your list.

    To visit a place, double-click on the bookmark. Bookmarks are indicated by lines of plain text in the bottom half of the Remembered Places window.
    Hold down the Shift key while double-clicking on the bookmark to open the page in a new HotJava Browser window.
    You can also click once on the bookmark to select it, then click the Go To Place button at the bottom of the window.

    To see the URL of a bookmark, click on the bookmark to select it. The URL of the bookmark is displayed in the message area at the top of the Remembered Places window.

    To add a new page to a list:

    1. Display the page in the HotJava Browser.
    2. Choose Remember Place from the Places menu or click on the Remember Place button .
       This adds the current page to the end of the New Places list.

       Alternatively, use the Remember Place in List pullright menu to add a new page directly to a list of your choice.

    Another way to add a new page to a list is to use the Add New Place pop-up window:

    1. Choose Show Remembered Places from the Places menu.
       This displays the Remembered Places window.
    2. Select the list in the Remembered Places window where you want to add the new page.
    3. Choose New Place from the Remembered Places window File menu.
       This displays the Add New Place window.
    4. Type in the URL and Title for the new place, then click on the OK button.

    To move a bookmark or folder to a new location:

    1. If the Remembered Places window is not currently displayed, choose Show Remembered Places from the Places menu to display it.
    2. If the item you want to move is not in the currently selected list, select the list containing the item.
    3. Select the item in the list that you want to move.
    4. Use the mouse to drag the item to its new location. This can be another location within the same list, or it can be another list. If you drop the bookmark on another list or folder, it is added at the top of that list or folder.

    Alternatively, to move a bookmark or folder to a new location using Cut, Copy, and Paste:

    1. Select the bookmark or folder you want to move.
    2. Choose Edit->Cut in the Remembered Places window if you want to move the item; choose Edit->Copy if you'd prefer to leave a copy of the item in its original location.
    3. Select the new list or folder you want to put the bookmark or folder in.
    4. Choose Edit->Paste in the Remembered Places window. The cut or copied item is added to the selected list or folder.
       The Paste menu item is only available after you have done a Cut or Copy.

       If you make a mistake or change your mind at any time while using Cut, Copy, and Paste, choose Edit->Undo to undo the last Cut, Copy, or Paste operation.

    To create a new list, choose New List from the Remembered Places window File menu. The new list will appear in the top section of the Remembered Places window and in the Places menu of the HotJava Browser.

    To create a new folder, choose New Folder from the Remembered Places window File menu. The new folder will appear at the top of the currently selected list.

    To rename a list, folder, or a bookmark's title or URL, select the item you want to rename, then choose Edit->Rename in the Remembered Places window. You can also double-click on a list to rename it.

    To add a horizontal line to a list, choose New Separator from the Remembered Places window File menu. Use the mouse to drag the new separator to the desired location. This is useful to keep your lists organized into groups or categories.

    To sort a list or folder, select the list or folder to be sorted, then choose the desired sort method from the Sort By submenu of the File menu. You can sort a list or folder in alphabetical order, by date visited (most recently visited pages first), or by frequency of visits (most often visited pages first).

    After you've sorted a list or folder, you can then choose Reverse Sort. For example, if you want your list ordered from least recently visited pages to most recently visited, choose Sort By->Date Visited, then choose Sort By->Reverse Order.

    To read a new list into the Places Lists, choose Import List from the File menu in the Remembered Places window. This is useful if you have a list of places saved from another browser. The list must be stored in HTML format and have a .html or .htm extension in order to be read into HotJava's Places Lists.

    To save a list as an HTML file, choose Export List from the File menu in the Remembered Places window. This saves whatever is currently selected in the Remembered Places window, whether it's a list, folder, or individual bookmark.

  Remember Place
    This adds the current page to the New Places List.
    Remember Place is equivalent to the Remember Place button .

    You can also add a link to the New Places List by pressing the right mouse button over the link to display the HotJava Commands pop-up menu, then choosing Add this Link to Remembered Places.

    See Show Remembered Places for information about managing your New Places and other lists.

  Remember Place in List
    This adds the current page to the list you choose from the Remember Place in List pullright menu.

    Use this menu item to add places to lists; use the Go to List menu item to revisit places you've saved in the lists. Use Show Remembered Places to organize your lists.
