A XyWrite for Windows installer

[David Garwood <dbgarwood@xxxxxxxxx>]

XyWriters,
I use XyWin for all document prep in my law office and thank the 
developers of OTVDM for their work to make it possible to use it in 
Win10 outside of virtual box and XP, with it's possible security 
issues.  I still support development of XYWIN 5.0 if that's the name, 
but now it's not so critical for me. I do use the speller and the 
document assembly feature (a lot).  I have not found a "modern" app that 
does doc assembly as easily as XyWin, and in a law office we do a lot of 
that.  We don't do books, etc., so I realize that mine is probably a 
niche use.

Thanks again to all for supporting XyWrite in all forms!
