What I don't understand is why the DOS boxes, using TT fonts, seem to be restricted to Lucida Console. Why not Courier, which is in many respects a preferable font?

I too have wondered about this and can't seem to find the thread that talks about adding fonts when one wants to run XyDos in a W98+etc window, which, given the way the laptops produce only a 2/3 to 3/4 dos screen, is perhaps the most effective way to use XyDos in a laptop.

PS to list: Surveyed all the text retrieval programs mentioned. dtSearch seems to be the best, has a Xywrite filter, and, I think, can be linked to XY, if their tech support lends a bit of help. Also looked hard at Biblioscape, very useful. With the  Dos/Windows Rexx U2 solution to clipping, should work okay. Thanks again to all for suggestions.
