(Documentation for the BASIC Edit menu)

Edit Menu: [Edit partition-tables, LVM info (BASIC!)]

UI, switch to Expert mode a-3

Activate the EXPERT user interface, giving access to ALL functionality

   This will switch the user interface (Menu and some dialogs) between the
   Basic mode with less functionality, intended for less experienced users
   and Expert mode where ALL functionality is available.

    The startup default (Basic UI mode) can be changed using the
    startup '-expert' switch, and can be modified on-the-fly using
    the 'SET EXPERT on/off/toggle' command, just as this menu does.

    You can put a command like 'set expert ON' in your profile.dfs to
    enable EXPERT mode without a startup-switch when starting DFSee.
