How to create a reusable template?

[David McFarlane]

In EP2.0.8.22 (and perhaps earlier) there is an easier way.  Simply 
put a copy of whatever .es2 file you like into the Templates folder 
of the E-Prime 2.0 program directory.  Then that .es2 file will show 
up as an option in the "New E-Prime 2.0 Experiment" dialog.  You may 
add and remove templates to suit your own needs.

EP2.0.8.73/74 improves on this by adding options (under Tools > 
Options) to allow you to set any folder as a Templates folder.

I don't know where PST intends to document this, I don't see it in 
the New Features Guide for EP2.  I only know about this because PST 
staff was nice enough to answer when I asked about this.
