Rafe:
BX (c:,w:\xybax);*;

in startup.int works nicely to back things up to what is in
essence a super floppy drive.

Not sure what this means. When you issue a SAve command, it
automatically copies the file to w:\xybax? I can't get it to work
here (tried on two desktop computers).
odd. it's documented (CRG, 2-4), and I'm pretty sure I used it in
XyWrite since day 1, and it worked under OS/2.
no matter, I guess, since of course, XYWWWEB has SaveTo, which I'm now
using contentedly, for which thanks. just out of curiosity, is there an
option which would work like func SL (save all open files) -- allowing
the user to *back up* all open files to the alternative directory with
one keystroke?
