Dear Carl
Thanks for the reference. Of course now that I know what it means I
feel like an idiot or at the very least very unhip. Just today
my kids had to explain to me that btw means by the way. again thanks

I don't mean to sidetrack
this technical thread, but, when time permits, would someone explain to me
the apparent obsession with getting Xy to run in a window? Even if it
were perfectly smooth -- and IMHO (Avrom: plug define:imho into Google)
it's pretty good, admittedly not perfect, with XP Pro SP2 -- I would never
in a million years run XyWrite in a window when I can run it full
screen, with colors tweaked via VPT. Very occasionally, to cut and
paste between programs -- sure. But for normal, extended text
editing? No way! Full screen is such a pleasure. It's so easy
to toggle Alt-Enter when necessary; and Robert's CLIP program provides
easy access to the system Clipboard, whether in a window or full screen.
Why beat your head against a wall?
