This is a listing of the bit settings for PREFERENCES= line in the NOTES.INI.
This line governs settings such as "scan unread", "empty trash", etc. The
number is simply derived by doing an "AND" operation on the values of the
individual settings. If you convert the number from the INI into Binary, you
can see the bit positions.

This listing is expanded from data I picked up on the web - it originated from
James Buzek at Procter & Gamble.

The list shows the bit position (from the right) and the value.

0 <0> = Keep workspace in back when maximized (Enabled=1)
