Re: Length of command line in Xy4DOS

[Alan Heubert aheubert@xxxxxxxx]

Dear Carl,

I tried using bigchg.pm. Any idea why the program would move the cursor to
the end of the search string, give me the message "Not found," and change
nothing? Do I need to have loaded any other files? I'm using XyWrite for
DOS v. 4.17.

Thanks,
Alan
