Delete references *where* ? SETTINGS.DFL ? (I wasn't even sure that XW
uses Settings.DFL) Although I have XW installed in one partition, mainly
because I *bought* it many years ago, in an effort to support XyQuest (or was
it
TTG, by then ?), I never really use it. So this is mainly an academic query,

for whatever future reference value it may hold.
