<blockquote>
<p>Allows the user to customize the appearance and behavior of the
GUI . Please note: some preferences take effect immediately,
while others require DS9 to be restarted. Changes to the
preferences can be saved by selecting the <tt>Save</tt> button<tt>.
</tt>Use the <tt>Clear Preferences </tt>button to restore
default settings.</p>
<p>User preferences are stored in <tt>$HOME/.ds9.prf</tt>. DO NOT
EDIT this file, since it will be deleted or overwritten by DS9.
The file permissions must be group/world readonly.<br>
</p>
<p>Users may have several different preference files. DS9 looks
for a preference file with its own name. By default, if the
application is named <tt>ds9</tt>, it will look for <tt>.ds9.prf.</tt>
However, if the DS9 application is named <tt>foo</tt>, then DS9
will look for <tt>.foo.prf.</tt> In this manner, the user can
have several predefined preference files that are activated by
invoking DS9 with a different application names. </p>
