Jon,

Never mind about ctrl-keys: I found the problem, and it's idiosyncratic to
my system (had to tell AutoHotkeys not to interfere with this new version
of XyWrite).


I'm now trying to find out how much of the supporting files can be put on
the host, and still have the program run from the instructions in the guest
machine.


I'm having trouble with the Tame view settings, which don't seem to "stick"
but get re-set on most re-launches of the seamless Tame-Xy. Do you have
that problem, too?


This is fun! Thank you!

Regards,
Harry
