Re: OED



Dear Carl, Thanks, and thanks for the good work with U2. I will await
you posting of the new version.

I have come upon a curious problem with Robert's OED lookup when using
XY4 in VDOS. I thought it worked earlier, but now when I try and launch
the lookup for a word, either from the keyboard or command line I
receive the message:

Not available for OpSys XYOS=DOS

Interesting, Paul. And timely. As a general matter the error message
makes sense because the OED won't run under pure DOS. As things now
stand, vDos is identified to U2 as "DOS"; hence, the false positive. But
under the forthcoming release of U2, vDos is identified as "VDX", which
should open the door to an easy fix. I'll try to nail it down before Sunday.
