Interesting - I have a brother-in-law in the Air Force, 
currently stationed at Spangdahlem AF Base in Germany.

Now for Edward's problems:

Hm, the Insmatch macro can also be called in the active UI 
file, or be linked to a certain key.  Besides, I think the 
automatic insertion of matching characters is to be kept? 
(see quote below)

>I can't seem to find how to undo this,

Perhaps if you reconfigured TSE back to its original 
state, by calling "sc32 -b tse.ui" from the command line, 
things should be the way they were before using the Win32-
interface (which has its own UI "win.ui").

>And I would like C mode to not get in the way of the 
>autoclosure of parens and braces.

Special modes (C mode and SmartIndent) are associated by 
default with file extensions that indicate programming 
language source files, e.g. "*.c", ".s",
".bat", ".prg".  
Then they control such features as indenting after a "{".

They should not be active unless TSE thinks you are 
editing a source code file, which is determined by the 
hooked procedure proc OnChangingFiles()
in the UI files. It settes or unsettes a global integer 
called cmode accordingly, every time a file is laoded in 
the editor.

If you are editing files that have the same extensions as 
source code files, but don't want C Mode, the UI could be 
edited, and TSE reconfigued with it.

>I'd like to go completely back to TSE clipboard style.

In TSE you can work with visible blocks, one unnamed 
editor clipboard, and 26 alphabetically named, independent 
clipboards.  Windows adds another system-wide clipboard 
that can be usd to share information between applications.

How this various clipboards appear and behave can be 
controlled by user interface files and/or loadable macros.  
What is it specifically you would like to change back?
