Morris,

Below is a line from the Nota Bene DFL file. If you don't want an error message
to appear, set that function to 0. Perhaps it works in XyClunk too. I would
imagine so. You may also need to provide "if" statements to branch around an
error message, but then, again, you'd probably need those in XyDos, too.

And don't forget what Carl the Wise hath said in regard to running XyClunk
programs in Graphic View, not expanded.

Hope this helps a little. Best I can do. I have long since banished all traces
of XyClunk from my system.

Anyway, voila:

; EP is error prompt (erase, print selection, print dir, abort, func SA, del
markers, font mismatch,prompt message for Correct cmd)
DF EP=1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0

I prefer not to be confounded, actually. I expect my XPL to work.

Magical??!! Surely not: It's just a software program. A magical moment is Grace
Kelly's entrance in Hitchcock's "Rear Window," Sinatra singing "Angel Eyes" from
_Only the Lonely_ or Aimee Mann singing "Red Vines" from _Bachelor No. 2_ or the
concluding paragraphs of _Gatsby_.
