Bruce,

Not frustrated...

I changed the "variable=tips" to "default=false" in "athena.demeter_conf" file with and without changing "restart=1" to "restart=0" with no change in the opening of the tips screen on the starting of Athena.

Will the update of the -devel package be announced to the mailing list or should I just periodically check the demeter website?

It should be at $HOME/.horae/demeter.ini

However, if you have never run Athena, then the tip dialog may show up
before the .ini file gets written.  Hmmm...

If so, then you need to find the "athena.demeter_conf" file with is
under the place found by


   perl -e 'use Demeter; print $INC{"Demeter.pm"}, $/'

in "Demeter/configuration/".  Near the top is a line that says
"variable=tips".  Soon after that is a line that says "default=true".
Edit true to false and try again.


I am sorry I cannot be more helpful and less command-line-y, but I
just don't own a Mac.  This is the best I can do.

Or you can wait a few more days until the -devel package gets updated.

I am sorry if this is frustrating for you.  I am working on it just as
fast as I can.
