The F3 define text..does not work properly in Xy IV nor does using the shift
arrow keys unless you go character to character. Tech Support says it is a
bug. When is this BASIC feature of any wordprocessor going to be fixed OR is
there a way around it in the meantime. I use a Leading Edge 486 55Mgz machine.
F3 then arrow keys shows no define then jumps in with more than you want. The
define is at least 10 characters behind the arrow. Using shift with arrow down
across a line leaves "666666...". F3 or Shift-Arrow only seem to work going
down. This is terribly inconvenient for most basic writing tasks! Thanks
