Actually mouse settings are hard to configure, because they are nested in several procs.

It should be investigated to make mouse config as easy as keyboard config, at best with the same config files. Mouse config depends on multiple cases, therefore it gets probably too complicated for one-line defs. At least simple defs should be easily changeable by a user.

All highly configurable editors have one problem: If one has changed a setting (by mistake or for testing) it's hard to remember where it can be changed back. Therefore there should be added an option to switch between some basic configurations via one click.

After installation of NEPMD the EPM doesn't start with NEPMD settings. In contrast, the NEPMD program object 'Standard EPM' starts.

Renaming myepmd\bin\NEPMD.INI is a workaround for that. A new one is created on the next EPM start. The malfunctioning NEPMD.INI contains the entry:

RegDefaults -> \NEPMD\User\MovedUserFiles

while the correct temporary entry would be:

Install -> \NEPMD\User\MovedUserFiles

That explains why the RegDefaults? application wasn't written. It already contains (wrong) data. As a result, EPM won't start.

Additionally, that temporary entry is normally only written if the install script has copied previous files to a backup directory. The backup directory exists with the files etke603.dll and copydll.cmd. Normally they were deleted afterwards.

It seems as if patching etke603.dll to apply the NEPMD colors has failed at the end.
