Thanks Dale. That clears up a few mysteries for me, too. I once had a corrupted Xy file, though xy had not corrupted it. Xy was truncating the file somewhere in the middle, though notepad showed the rest of the file. I recall finding an OEF marker in the middle of the file, in notepad of course, and moving it to where it belonged. After that Xy displayed the whole file again. I remember being puzzled that Xy hadn't deleted all the text after the EOF marker, but just hadn't displayed it. Now it makes sense; Xy was apparently trying to treat all the text after the EOF marker as meta-data.
