It means that you've defined a different origin to your default origin
for that particular area.

Hmmm.. It seems to have gone away, on its own! I did not mess with
Origins. I'm not even sure how to do that in oxp.

There are three places in OpenXP where you can define an origin:

[1] Default origin:
/Edit/Servers/Edit/Names

[2] Group origin:
/Edit/Groups/Netz/Edit/Fido

[3] Area origin:
/Special
Cursor over the area you wish to define a specific origin for
and press <Enter>.

I've just changed mine for this area and I now see an "O" in the left-
hand column ;-)

Hello Martin!

I am now inside Apoint, but this reply is about OXP.

for
and press <Enter>.

Too many options! :) I can still get lost between the /S)pecial and /W)rite
menus!

The different levels of customizing the Origin is not too bad. I wonder what the author had in mind to desire manipulating the text in the origin line so much.

Versatility perhaps :)
