I'm wrong here; Edit does write out a default for Font & FontSize, but only
when you change it through the Preferences panel. Changing it through the
Font panel doesn't write new values out.

Actually the last two are named "GenerateMainfile" and "GenerateMakefile" ---
not "ProjectMain" and "ProjectMake." There is a bug which prevents the 
GenerateMakefile value from being written out; so you'll have to set that
one by hand through dwrite.
