Re: XyWin Help



Dear David
It works for me although it is very slow to load. You might need to update your version of OTVDM to the latest version. I have been downloading the most recent from the GitHub page and simply copying the files on to of my installation. You may need to preserve a copy of C:\otvdm\otvdm.ini and c:\otvdm\Windows\win.ini when you do this and then copy them back into the new installation.

I have been downloading from here:

I just noticed that the XWHelp function is NOT working for me. Don't use
it much (I have the book :) but sometimes it is handy. OTVDM shows error

The "using help" and "Index" do come up and appear to work, but not
"Glossary" and "Keyboard Help."  I tried this also in the C:\XW
directory where it is installed.  I turned off Avast and still not working.

Any ideas?  Thanks for any help.
