<P>
<P>Configuration information for Disk Navigator are stored in the
<CODE>~/.kde/share/config/kpanelrc</CODE> configuration file. The group
is <CODE>[kdisknav]</CODE>.
<P>Usually you don't need to edit this file manually, as this can be done through
the Options dialog box. This section documents entries related to 
Disk Navigator. If the option is missing in the configuration file, its
default value is assumed. Note that a broken [kdisknav] group can be repaired
simply removing all the entries listed here (their default value will be
assumed).
