	The way I get it to work (on XP) is to start XyWrite from a batch file
that says

mode con lines=50
before it starts XyWrite. Probably there are other ways.

	On W98 changing the number of lines in the window properties worked, if
I recall correctly---there was no need for the mode con stuff.


	I can't get a window of *more* than 50 lines, though. It seems that SL
has a maximum of 50 (which is a pity!).
