Please can someone remind me how to permanently set the minimum DRC 
sizes, i.e. copper spacing, copper width, overlap, silk width, drill 
dia., and annular ring? I want every new instance of pcb to 
automatically open with the settings that our PCB maker prefers.

The tickbox for "use DRC values as the default for new layouts" never 
seems to work as I'd expect it to. I've always had to change them manually.

Still using version 20110918 (I know, sorry, it's on Ubuntu's repository 
and we've not had time to try later offerings yet ;) )

Many thanks,

Matt
