Do you see the difference between what you wrote, and what Darac wrote?
I found <https://manpages.debian.org/bookworm/mlterm/mlterm.1.en.html>
which has a "CONFIGURATION" section, which says:
The contents of these configuration files (other than menu)
consist of lines of "key=value" format. Lines beginning with
"#" are ignored.
Your files have spaces around the = sign. The man page, and Darac's
proposal, do not. So, the first thing I would try would be to remove
the spaces.
However, the people who wrote <https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Mlterm>
seem to think the spaces are allowed. Some of their examples have
spaces in them. And some do not. So... who knows. I've never used
this terminal before, so all I can do is search for documentation.
