# General Tips
The toolbar buttons can be used for frequently used menu items.

You need not save all the lists you are studying. If you can recreate
the lists quickly, there is no need to save.

Some of the predefined lists take a long time to create. You can save
time in the future by saving them.

The lists saved to files are compressed in order to reduce hard drive
(or floppy drive) space.

While viewing List or Hooks, if the current word has an asterisk next to it,
that word is a phoney.
