Errr... Duhhh.... Very very dumb question : can someone explain to the
subtechnoid, or post a URL that does, just how to do this? Like for
starters, can you do it as user inside Pan while running, or do you need
to go to a command line as root and find some file deep inside other
files, or ....??

I suppose we can hope for it to be coded in, if/when Pan's development
resumes; but I'd rather not wait ...
