Dear Fellow Xywriters
With a lot of expert advice from Robert I finally got xywrite to work in
Windows 7 full screen.
My next project is to set up the right screen fonts and colors.
Before getting to the subject of colors, are the screen fonts we see on the
screen in xywrite generated by windows or by xyrite.
My main question is how to select screen colors in xywrite. I
remember that in either an earlier version of Nota Bene or Xyrite there was a
file you could call up that would display the number of each color as it
would apprear in a particular situation. For example if you wanted to see
how various colors looked bolded in a selected block of text you would look at
the line in the chart for bolded in select text and see the number of the
color you liked best. Unfortunately I no longer have my manuals so I do
not know if there is an equivalent file in xywrte 4. Would appreciate any
help in locating such a file.
On an unrelated topic how much is a cd of the OED and what is the
recommended source for such a cd. If you can put the whole 20+ volumes on
a cd for $200 - $300 that sounds like the bargain of the current century.
If it is not a violation of the copyright laws I would love to chip in and
help to sponsor an OED on the xylist serve. Can it be implementated. I
am very grateful for the help I have received over the years and would love to
be able to reciprocate.

borrow them and make photocopies of them and promptly return the
original.
