Sounds right to me. I can't remember anymore, but suspect that my XY4 .kbd file is just a
continuation of the long evolving one from 3+ days. Meaning that I kept building onto the same
structure. I did import some things, like the 104-key diagram, which I think
the 3+ files did not have. Also, the 4-series files all have that identifier right at the top, e.g.

;PR

to indicate a Printer File, etc.
