Re: Undocumented keyboard functions NB 3.0 - knowledgebase needed

["M.W. Poirier" poirmw@xxxxxxxx]

 I think that NB 4.5a is more akin to XY3, and I am not sure that there
 was a DOS version of NB that was comperable to XY4. I believe that
 after version 4.5a, NB moved to Windows. Carl may be the best person
 to inform us about this matter.

  few people have told us that version 8 is much more user-friendly than
  earlier versions. With regard to documentation, we do have 600 pages of
  printable documentation in NB format and PDF format. And the same
  material is also available in HLP (on screen) format.

 the software right out of the box. Back in the good old days it had
 three-ring binders with well nigh 1000 pages of documentation. I tried
 the DOS NB 4.x product, but it was too complicated to reprogram.
 Deloading some features proved to be impossible, so I am stuck with a
 copy of NB 3.0 which has everything I need. Trying newer versions of
 XyWrite and studying their documentation was useful in the sense that I
 discovered features that were included, but not documented. Indeed, a
 more thorough knowledgebase of the different versions would be helpful.

 NB 3.0 is most akin to Xy 3+, but I for one do not have the printed Xy
 3+ documentation, and it seems to me, it is not online anywhere in its
 entirety. PDF versions of all manuals would be the first step followed
 by a scrutiny for lacking or erroneous information. A thesaurus of
 XyWrite/N.B. documentation is a goal worth striving for.
