Easy, set a symlink... Oh, MSWormOS... More seriously, while a symlink will work (on *ix anyway), there's a better way with new-pan (pan2). Set and export the environmental variable PAN_HOME to point to the appropriate directory before starting pan, and it should read it and load any config and data it sees there, instead of using the default .pan2 dir. That should work anywhere pan works. OTOH, I can't tell you how to set an environmental var on MSWormOS beyond '98. Ideally, you could set it by configuring the shortcut, but if that's not possible and you don't already know, better check with someone that's more familiar with newer MS. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
