This is my first post to the Xywrite discussion list. I looked through the
index from the listserver and didn't see an FAQ file, so I apologize if my
questions are on topics that have already been covered.

I am working in Xywrite III Plus, and I have two questions. 1) I typically
work with all windows enabled and am constantly opening and shutting files as
I work. I would sometimes like Xywrite to stop me if I attempt to open a file
that is already open in another window. Is there a variable that can be set
or that will alert me in such a case? 2) I have long had a hankering to be
able to customize the thesaurus--any chance of it?

For what it's worth, I am a writer and an editor at a commercial publishing
house. I am fairly well-versed in XPL. Thanks for any help you can give.
