INI Files
---------

NovaBack uses INI files to save program configuration in between
sessions. You should never have to use these files except for in the
following special cases:

CD-ROM DRIVES and REMOVABLE MEDIA:

By default NovaBack does not present removable media devices (it will
never present the floppy drives A: or B:). If you want NovaBack to
present CD-ROM drives and other media we detect as removable, make the
following change in "novaback.ini":

	ignore removable media = OFF

If you do not have a "novaback.ini" choose the Options/Save from the
menu.
