Re: Can I install Xywrite



Hi Again:
 Back in my Win95 days, I did just that! I copied XYWrite (I suspect -
but don';t remember - that it was XYDOS) the XY directory to a pair of
floppies and carried them everywhere. Used them in various places,
inculding PCs at airline clubs (e.g. American and Delta). Never had any
trouble.
