That is actually for the optional textview app. It is not required for the
gfiles app, since Mystic has pretty darned good text viewer function already.
gfiles will use the optional textview.mpx program if it exists in the scripts
directory. If it doesn't find it, it will use the default mystic textviewr. I
wrote that app before Mystic had the internal text viewer. But.. to answer
your question, the CfgTempPath+'textview.dat' is a temp file that gets created
in the nodes' temp directory. It is a binary file copy of the textfile being
viewed.

um, yes. CfgTempPath defaults to the temp dir for that users' node. The
value of it changes depending on what node the user is on.
