Edward:

Definitely of interest! The best I can offer in the way of publicly-
available information is the olio of "XyWrite history" texts found
here:
http://xywwweb.ammaze.net/dls/XyHistory.zip
The files most relevant to your query (but still pretty peripheral)
are, I think, these:
xyhist06.txt
xyhist08.pdf
Also, there's this: http://yesss.freeshell.org/x/_xyq.htm
More apropos, I believe that Dave Erickson has contributed code to NB
Windows, and Steve Siebert at Nota Bene may well have current contact
information for him. An oral history of XyWrite by Erickson and Hild
would be Smithsonian-worthy, IMHO.
