| Check the manual:
| 
|     PFINSERTMODE=ON
| 
|         Set insert mode on by default in *cabe/*clerk.
| 
|         Version Ref: 5.0.9
| 
|     PFMEMOINSERTMODE=ON
| 
|         Sets default memo editor insert mode to "on".
| 
|         Version Ref: 5.0.10
| 
| [...]


On my fp_v5.0.14D4 setup, the help file for 'configed' is denoted as
version 1.0.00; it mentions neither PFINSERTMODE nor PFMEMINSERTMODE.
