" To relate this to XPL (sorry, but digressions of a literary or
" linguistic nature are NOT off-topic -- not on a XyWrite list!), I have
" a little program that temporarily remaps key assignments to characters
" corresponding to Cyrillic letters when (a TrueType font)
" is invoked in XyWin. In other words, lets you alternate between
" English and Cyrillic keyboards without changing .KBD files. Convenient
" for producing bilingual texts. If anyone's interested, let me know.
