here can be separated by a space, tab, or comma; creating a new line
by pressing Enter will also separate keywords.</P>
<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">The <B>favorite keywords</B> list
allows quick selection of commonly used keywords. A keyword is

update as words from the list are selected. To edit the favorite
keywords list activate the favorites button at the bottom of the
sidebar.</P>
