} A user says that OmniWeb.app (0.9.1) is not starting up any more
} (crashed when invoked) since she tried to change her preference for a
} different default home page... I tried to find a ".omniweb" kind of
} file, to delete it, but can't find where OmniWeb keeps its defaults
} and preferences... Seems to be .NeXT/.NeXTDefaults.L --but that is
} not a file I know how to edit.

As well as the dread/drite methods mentioned by various people, there is a
very neat app called Preferences available on the archive sites. Its gives
you a GUI for looking through all the preferences and modifying them... You
can also save and reload preference sets - for example so you can preload a
users preferences when you create an account.
