There are some prefs that are not exposed in the user interface. You can use an XML or plist editor (like the excellent PlistEdit Pro) or you can just use a text editor. You must edit them when kJams is NOT running, open the file:

To reveal your preferences file, run kJams and go to the Help menu and pick "Reveal Preferences". It will then show you your prefs file in this location:

Mac: ~/Library/Preferences/kJams/kJams Preferences.plist
Win: ~/AppData/Roaming/Preferences/kJams/kJams Preferences.plist

note: click the tilde above if you don't know what it means

  • "Browser Font Size" - default is 11
  • "Launch Midi Files" - set to true
  • "Half Ring buffer size (in megabytes)". Default is 1.5, set it to 3 if the ring buffer ever runs dry on your particular system
  • "Maximum number of items in web search results list" - default is 200
  • a bunch more
