Manuel,
	This is covered in the new FAQ, you can issue -
finger -l ajsulliv@mcmaster.ca for the location of the new FAQ's

[Andrew Sullivan - I can't reach this -->can't find mcmaster.ca: Server
failed<--, numerous attempts on multiple days. Is it my NS's prob.]

If that doesn't work for you, the locations are:
	1. http://www.the-site.dyn.ml.org/Linux/AfterStep/FAQ <--mine
	2. http://web.idirect.com/~xtres/afterstep/ <--Marcin Pacyna

You need to change both the look.file and then the keybindings in the
feel.file, or yes it will crash.  Do them both then goto
menu-->Quit-->Update look and feel .

	As an solution to crashes due to mis-configured look/feel's,
simply cp /u/s/a/n/desk#/look(or)feel##.bpp to
~/G/L/A/n/desk#/look(or)feel##.bpp and restart.  This will copy the
default ones over the corrupted ones, allowing you to restart and try
again.
