Eating lunch seems to have slightly revived my memory -- enough to recall why I was confused. In the [Files] section of maker.ini, there's this entry: CustomDoc=fminit\custom You can change that to use some other file as the blank paper template -- such as shellnew.fm, if you don't see any point in using different templates for creating new docs inside and outside FM. :-) Richard G.
