This reinforces one of the major themes from this thread: NBWin is ACTIVELY being developed. They
LISTEN to their users. XyWin/SmartWords is (or rather, WAS) actively being . . . uh, promised.

As the earlier part of the thread mentioned, TTG simply says certain things can't be done to XyWin
(things that have subsequently been done by the folks at NB); as was already stated, the reality is
that TTG has no interest in doing them.

I for one prefer software whose developers are interested in making it better, being responsive to
users, fixing things that don't work right, etc. Of course, one's choice of software is ultimately
dependent on how well it meets one's needs and ways of working. For some, that's still XyWin. For
others, NBWin.
