BC XC or BX Q2

 This little program marks all the spelling errors as it loops right through
a piece of text written in XY4 Dos 4.018, using the XY3-4 keyboard. It was
first written for Xy3, but when I replaced the BC XC with BX Q2, the program
did not work. Can anyone explain the reason for this quirk. Using BX Q2 is
suppose to be an improvement on the BC approach as it avoids the command
line.

BC seb /^/XC GT BC se .WA .XC >
NW CL BX spellQ2 ES GT CL @NW 
BF BD BD # 

 Furthermore what is the command in Xy4 that saves the command line and
which can be inserted in a program. Is it the same or similar to the one
used by Herb Tyson in XyWrite Revealed?
