Title: RE: a few XyWrite kindergarten questions

It's also possible to see the words "sharing violation" in Xy3...although it doesn't originate from within Xy. If I'm using my Windows editor (Textpad), which "locks" files, and I open the same file with Xy3...I get a "sharing violation" when I try to save.

Not purely.  Xy4DOS also.  And it's not an "err, feature".  More
like an Ur-feature -- basic protection for the Help file system.
Its absence in Xy3 was the source of many a corrupted Help file.
