oh yes! there is/was that bug... i resorted to hexediting the config file IIRC
when i was using/testing those... i had forgotten all about that one... in my
case, i did what i found obvious... i put !'s for the [ and ] and since it was
only a couple of paths that i was doing this on, i only had one or two places
to hexedit...
i guess it should be mentioned that one should be careful when using an older
FESETUP due to new capabilities/settings that may get overwritten/lost with new
config files...
