Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2003 16:02:44 -0800 The only time Auto-bookmarking would occur is when the off key is pressed. One thing it might be is if the settings are being saved at periodic intervals. I write the auto-bookmark/auto-load settings to a file within the settings_save function. If that's being called by another function at some interval, then that might be what's causing the disk access. I'd prefer to save to memory, but I never got a response to my queries on which addresses to use. I can hack the code a little bit and see if that's what is happening.
