\section{Changing Your Preferences

}
Changing your preferences is as simple as editing and saving your 
preferences.  To do this, type


\typewriter{\leftindent{ez preferences}}


at your command prompt and press Enter.  \



When the EZ window appears with your preferences file in it, you can type 
in the new line you want to add, or change the value of an existing 
preference.  For example, add the following line to your preferences file:


ez.bodyfont: AndySans10


Save the file and quit the EZ window you are running.  Now, start EZ again 
by typing


\typewriter{\leftindent{ez preferences}}


You should notice that the letters in the EZ window are different from what 
they were before.  To change them back, you can either remove the 
preference entirely, or simply put a # mark in front of it, like


# ez.bodyfont: AndySans10


The # mark tells EZ not to read that preference.  You can also use # marks 
to add reminders to yourself about what preferences are for, as in:


# I added this just for the preferences tutorial

ez.bodyfont: AndySans10


You can now experiment will lots of different preferences listed in the 
 \italic{preferences } help file.  Once you have edited and saved your 
preferences file, any new processes you call up, such as EZ, will use the 
new preferences that are relevant to them.  Thus, it is possible to have 
several EZ windows with different type fonts.  \
