Re: robert's advice on setting up shortcuts and icons to start xywrite



I have run XY on several windows machines, with no trouble, and have always opened from an ikon on my desktop.
 
I forget how I did it but -- re-creating.
 
First, I always run from directory \xy -- below windows.
 
When I right click on that directory in 'my computer' I get the option 'create shortcut.' I would guess that's the way I do it, because I don't know enough to do anything more complcated.
 
Also, if it's of any interest to anyone, all my xywrite files are in directory \A -- again below windows. I don't know whether that's normal or not, but it seemed to make sense to me.

Dear Paul and Robert
 
First, thank you Paul for sending me the reference in the archive that I could not find to Robert's advice on setting up shortcuts.  In case someone tries to find Robert's instructions in the Xywrite  archieve do not make the same misstake I did.  I guess I showed my age by looking for "batch" rather than a "bat" when I did a search in the archive.
 
Second, thank you Robert for preparing a set of instructions for setting up a shortcut that are clear and have stood the test of time on several pc's.
