+ <h1>Profile Editing</h1>
+ <p>There are two ways to create a Connection by either using 'New Connection'
+ ( <img src="new.png"> ) or to use a previously saved profile.
+ Both ways involve the usage of the Profile Dialog.<br>
+ <p>The dialog is divided into four tabs Profile, Connection, Terminal and
+ Speical.<br>
+ <P><B>Profile</b> - In profile you need to set a Profile name below
+ the equally named label. <br>
+ <P><B>Connection</b> - Then you need to choose a Connection type.
+ In this version Opie Console supports a legacy console called
+ 'local console', a Serial and a Modem connection mode.
+ Depending on this choice the second tab will have a different UI.
+ <a href="#con">More below.</a><br>
+ <P><B>Terminal</b> - Here you may select a terminal emulation
+ widget.<br>
+ <P>The last item on this page is a option to automatically
+ connect on creation.<br>
+ <br><br>
+ <a name="con"></a><p> The Connection Tab depends on the Conenction
+ Type used.<br>
+ For local console there is no option available.<br>
+ Modem and Serial share most of the configuration. You can select
+ a device to use, the speed, the flow control and the parity. On top
+ of that Modem let's you choose a number to dial and to configure
+ a set of AT commands.<br>
+ <br><br>
+ <p>The Terminal Tab let's you choose ther Terminal Type, a color scheme,
+ the font.<br>
+ <br><br>
+ <p>The fourth tab is there to configure the additional software keys for
+ a connection.<br>
+ <br><br>
+
+ <P>Clicking the OK button on the top right position accepts this dialog
+ and the profile will be used.
+
+
+ <h2>Using the Profile Editor</h2>
+ <p>The Configuration Dialog can be accessed by either clicking
+ on the 'Connection' Menu and then 'Configure Profiles' or by the
+ item in the <a href="menubar.html">menubar</a>.<br>
+ <p>The listview contains the already saved profiles. You can add
+ , remove and modify profiles by selecting one and clicking the
+ appropriate button.<br>
