Re: Newbie question on running Xywrite III on Windows 10/11



Harry,
I do not know about these cloud scenarios but installing XyWrite 4 (as well as most other DOS Xy products with the exception of NB4) locally in various code page versions with better character support and new more reliable Ghostscript print subsystems will soon be automated.

Best regards,

Kari,
That's great news, because I have had considerable difficulty. I've not quite gotten vDOSPlus working and DOSBox-x installation is stalled. Partly, my troubles are due to giving in to Windows expectation of beginning each path with /users/[username]/ which I had refused to do until my latest Win 11 Dell laptop. (And Mac's file structure is even more confusing--including two different and important directories with the same name, Library.)
With each iteration of Windows, the permissions issue gets worse (for 
the home user).

Regards,
Harry
