Does simply creating a shortcut let you "change the size of the font in the
window to suit yourself?"

I have Win98 and run Xy4.017 on Dos. Currently, to get going in Xy, I hit the
Win start key, R for run, and type in c:\xy4\editor.exe, but the font size I am
working in is not large enough to suit me. Even working in editor.pif is not
much help, and I can't get a full screen in pif. It sounds as though your
advice to create a shortcut might give me access to Win or Word fonts to use in
Xy4. Can such a thing be possible? If not, just how would I go about getting a
larger font in XyDos?

Many thanks
