PushPrefs (ne’s manual)

#### 4.9.23 PushPrefs

Syntax: `PushPrefs [n]`
Abbreviation: `PUSHP`

pushes n copies of the user preferences onto a stack. If not specified, n defaults to one. Use the `PopPrefs` command to pop preferences off the stack and restore the values. See PopPrefs. Note that the preferences stack is global, not document-specific, so you could `PushPrefs` one document’s preferences, switch documents, then `PopPrefs` those preferences, thereby altering the preferences for the second document. The maximum preferences stack depth is 32.

`PushPrefs` and `PopPrefs` are useful in macros that require certain preferences to work properly. A macro can `PushPrefs`, change any preferences necessary, do its work, then `PopPrefs` to restore the users previous preferences settings.

`PushPrefs` saves the following values on the preferences stack:

      AutoIndent  DelTabs   NoFileReq    StatusBar  VisualBell
      AutoPrefs   DoUndo    PreserveCR   ShiftTabs  WordWrap
      Binary      FreeForm  ReadOnly     Tabs
      CaseSearch  HexCode   RightMargin  TabSize
      ClipNumber  Insert    SearchBack   UTF8Auto
