[NTLK] setting up my spare NEWTON

[R A Parker]

Nothing about priority.

With Newton Connection Utilities or Newton Backup Utility, it's  
grouped and alphabetized.

When a backup occurs, it will backup in groups such as preferences/ 
settings first, then data stores, and finally packages. Within each of  
the subgroups above, the individual files (records?) are backed up  
alphabetically.

Restore occurs exactly the same way as well. Restores occur in groups.  
First the settings, then the data stores, and then the packages.  
Everything gets restored (in groups) and then alphabetically.

Optionally, within NCU, you are able to selectively restore individual  
items as you choose, in whatever order you wish.
