I, too, had accidental aborts in Xy3+. I solved it by changing my .kbd file to just "=bc,a,b" -i.e., I took out the XC. That did the trick. But I believe that Carl's SMARTSET.U2 has an abort that allows you to unabort. It saves a putatively aborted file to a sav.tmp file (or something like that). Then you can retrieve it. Right, Carl?
