Re: DIR not working right



And what about under that alternate Cmd.Exe that RH recommended to us long ago . . .  or was that null and
void by the time of Vista / W7 ?

Since you are the exponent of W7 32bit, I have one for you.  I dragged Editor.Exe onto my W7_x86 desktop,
where it stubbornly remains represented as a plain white sheet of paper.  Nothing I've tried so far has caused
*any* of the Xy icons available at Brian's site to "take."  I don't seem to have this problem with any other program
on that desktop, but then this is probably the only DOS program there, which may well be the clue.  If there is
some _other_ way to force this, do tell.

Harry, you don't say which platform, in this instance, you're running Xy4 from. I had a similar problem when I ran Xy4 under VirtualBox using either W2K or XP as the intermediary. If it hadn't been for that, I would have stayed with VirtualBox. The problem doesn't exist under VMware. I have not yet filed a bug report with VirtualBox.
