Yes, it's a wonderful tool for those of us with long programs to speed up.
BTW, I used ITER to test speed with and without display off (XD). I looked
at the U2 code for ITER and it doesn't appear to change the state of XD/DO
that is set manually (by my entering FUNC XD on the command line before
invoking ITER). Is that correct?
Surprisingly, I didn't find any significant speed difference between XD and
DO in running programs that switched the active window using GOFILE or
which moved the cursor back and forth using either CL CR or NP PP.

Yes, that works here, too. How on earth did you come up with that? If I
knew your thinking, I could I apply that the next time I have some BX
trouble (if ever).
