Please turn off HTML when posting, at least here. A lot of folks don't
realize it's on until someone mentions it to them.
As for copying your Linux config to use with MSWormOS, I believe some
even use a shared FAT partition for their config, and share it. =8^)
The default pan config and data location on Linux is the hidden directory
~/.pan2/. I'm not sure where it is on MSWormOS. However, you can point
the PAN_HOME environmental variable at a different location to have pan
look there instead (works on Linux and I believe on MSWormOS, but not
sure), or make use of symlinks if you are using an appropriate *ix side
filesystem.
