Confirmed. One of them is the session toolbar for untitled. When Session window comes up at CMUD startup, there is untitled window in the backgroud with its session toolbar. If you open your session, it will disappear, but toolbar remains. The toolbar has several hidden buttons (parse, enable triggers, toggle keypad mode (hm? Is it a TeSSH feature?)), which are active and affects on the current session (regardless that toolbar caption says "Session toolbar: untitled".

Hi Hadar. I love your status off to the left, would you mind sharing how you use it? It looks great for displaying information about your status and such. How do you update the information in that window, do you have to re-write the whole thing every time something changes or am I thinking about it the wrong way?

This likely is indicating that there was something corrupted in your toolbar settings and layout (which might have been causing unstability or problems in previous versions).

Try deleting the *.TBZ file stored for your session, which will remove the toolbar layout (resetting the menu and toolbar to the default) without messing up your window layout (stored in the separate *.XLY file)

You are right. It was default.tbz file in the CMUD installation folder. CMUD doesn't use it anymore (the file is not recreated after CMUD start-up), but why it use that file if it already exists?

Hmm... Without default.tbz file there is no computer and gun icons in the untitled session now. The buttons are there, but they are blank (WinXP SP2).
Gonna try to reinstall CMUD again.

The Default.tbz file is used when you want to override the main menu/toolbar. If it doesn't exist, CMUD just uses the default toolbar. If you use the Save Layout to save a toolbar layout to Default.tbz, then CMUD will use that as the default for new sessions.

If the computer and gun icons don't show up, try just resizing the window and see if that works. I noticed this in one of my sessions and it seems the buttons are not getting refreshed until the window is resized.

Status windows (Go to Window->Status Window to make it appear) automatically update themselves when a variable changes. It's pretty versatile, so play around with it some. :P

That didn't help, there were 5 (?) blank buttons and nothing helps (I wonder why there was "toggle keypad mode" button? I believe it shouldn't show up in CMUD, but in TeSSH?).
Anyway, I made a clean install of 3.14a (well, not clean, but I've removed almost all files from CMUD folder except session related dbs and spell-checker files) and now everything looks good. I have computer and gun buttons with icons instead of 5 blank buttons.
