Re: UnDo2



Please do this: from a XyWrite command line, issue this *exact*
command:
 dos/nv/x/z /c kmd/c start /min notepad
Does a separate window with Notepad open on the Desktop?

It opens minimized.
Then issue these three *exact* commands, being very careful to
type the second command precisely (observe the spaces!):
 del/nv C:\XY\UNDOIDX
 dos/nv/x/z /c kmd/c start /min C:\XY\UnDo.exe K 5 1 1
 read C:\XY\UNDOIDX
What's the content of C:\XY\UNDOIDX? Does the file even exist?
If so, does it contain at minimum a single carriage return?
It exists, and has:


1;C:\mailhbl\kill
That filename and path is correct. But I think it's left over from just-previous testing. So I quit X, deleted C:\mailhbl\kill, relaunched Xy, and did just the steps you outline. Result is a file whose content is just one .

So it seems to be okay on this score. And, this time UD shows:
1.001
It's contents, when REad, are three test lines left over from before I quit Xy the time before.

What does it all mean?
