Well, actually, I had already done that. I'm running the plain xywrite
keyboard you ship, and the KEY files seemes to confirm my expectation
that the command stack would be on CTRL-UP/DOWN, which are defined in
XyWrite.kbd in the CTRL table as

100=S-
102=S+

same as in the original XyWrite version.

In the nb.kbd file, on the other hand, in the CTRL-SHIFT table, I find

100=NI,&X,C,<
102=NI,&X,C,>

and I don's find S+ or S- anywhere??

Now, after more testing, I've found that the NB command stack does work,
but only for certain commands. I had been testing using commands like
dir, new, and ab, none of which can be recovered in the NB command
stack, whereas they are saved in the XY command stack.

I'll try pasting the actual nb.kbd definitions into xywrite.kbd to see
if anything changes.
