<LI>Disk Navigator menus are updated automatically when directory
contents change, except the first menu, that is updated through the
Options dialog.
</LI>
<LI>The contents of the "Recent" section are saved in the
&nbsp;/.kde/share/config/kpanelrc configuration file. If you want to clear this
section, you can clear the <CODE>RecentFolders</CODE> and <CODE>RecentFiles</CODE>
entries in this file after logging out from KDE.
</LI>
<LI>Documents and applications not accessed through the KPanel are not added 
to the "Recent" section. This limitation will disappear in future
versions of Disk Navigator.
</LI>
<LI>Due to efficiency reasons, most files are not displayed with the same icon
you would see in a file manager window. With the current version, only
<CODE>.kdelnk</CODE> files have the corresponding icon displayed. Other files
are displayed with two different icons to distinguish between data files
and executables.
</LI>
<LI>Copying <CODE>~/.kde</CODE> and $KDEDIR: if you are using symbolic links to define
filesystem entry points in the Shared/Personal sections, you must be careful 
when copying the KDE directory, since the <CODE>cp</CODE> command with the
<CODE>-r</CODE>
option follows symbolic links. Under Linux you can use the <CODE>-d</CODE>
option to avoid this problem.
However, you are recommended to change all symbolic links to corresponding 
KDE URL files.
Symbolic links are stored under <CODE>$KDEDIR/share/disknav</CODE> (Shared) and
<CODE>~/.kde/share/disknav</CODE> (Personal).
