If DELTAGS chokes in other contexts,
I'd certainly like to hear about it.

I'm most grateful to whoever brought up the html problem, because it
finally roused me to get hold of the Jumbo set of programs, and for me
DELTAGS works just fine, including reading files downloaded from the
South China Morning Post of Hong Kong, which my browser won't pick up
because there's a registration code put in them. I'm now sufficiently
embolded to see if I can make it work for NBWin 6.0.


Only one minor problem, and that is that in some downloaded files (those
from the NYTimes, for instance), DELTAGS does not deal with paragraph
breaks; if I want them I have to go into the html file, and do a global
chance turning all the 
 signs into paragraph breaks. Then if I
run DELTAGS all works as advertised. If I knew enough about XPL
programming no doubt I could fix the problem myself, but I'm reluctant
to mess around with anything that works as well as DELTAGS.


One more appeal on a different subject: I gather some people have had
no trouble in running XyWrite in a full window in Microsoft XP Home
edition. If anyone has the time and inclination, I'd be interested in
hearing privately (or publicly) how this is done, because I'm not having
much luck with it.
