I have XY4 and use it occasionally, but I don't like the touch and feel
of it. It just seem "notchy", not direct and smooth as XY3. Also, there
is something weird about the autoreplace function in XY4, and I don't
want to modify all my .spl files.

Did that right from the beginning. XY.bat starts XY3 and XY4 starts XY4.

I'll add the /e4000 and see what happens. Cheers
