I found <https://manpages.debian.org/bookworm/mlterm/mlterm.1.en.html> which has a "CONFIGURATION" section, which says: The contents of these configuration files (other than menu) consist of lines of "key=value" format. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored. Your files have spaces around the = sign. The man page, and Darac's proposal, do not. So, the first thing I would try would be to remove the spaces. However, the people who wrote <https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Mlterm> seem to think the spaces are allowed. Some of their examples have spaces in them. And some do not. So... who knows. I've never used this terminal before, so all I can do is search for documentation.
