What are you going to do if you don't have some of the programs that they have configured their button banks to use? Or if you don't keep things in the same places? Customising your own install is the best way to go, imo, and you also learn more about how it all works.
Giggles... Sorry... Just edit out the buttons. For a novice its agreat start. Trying to configure buttons to open JPGs and LHA files etc etc can be a struggle. With so many configs you can pick and choose. The only real issue is the VOLS and when something isn`t recognised you can simply edit from the box. Not rocket science. I have mine configured from 1995 and has grown and grown like a brain. But I still imported the odd cfg file to see how others do it. I also have DOpus companion to help plus all the various other disk help files on buttons. Also folk have sent me their configuration files to have a look at how they configured DOpus.
I just wish I had had the internet back then cus it would have certainly saved a load of time seing how to set up all the various tools. Go get a config and see how they work. As long as you back up your own it really will do no harm to your computer what so ever.
I use DOpus as a one stop shop for everything on my Amigas and the first thing I do when setting up another machine is load in my DOpus brain config file. Then simply edit out the drives for that machine... takes just a minute.
Config... Drives... whoops not there Search ... Then rename the button and SAVE... Easy peasy.... [ giggles sorry ]
You also need to get also the various Tools in C. And remember the little fold on a button means there is another link under the button which you right click. You can see what buttons you have from the Config menu. I have a button for Config. I tend to avoid the drop down menus which also can be configured to run all your programs.
