Yes, that would the way to do it....

Perhaps it is an idea to also define an default action by adding

FromOrTo:       default                         store

to the file... just to be sure.....


Perhaps there is an way to do this with some kind of regular expression, but
that I don't know. Maybe someone else knows?
