There's a "new" old book at XyWWWeb called the "XyWrite Programming Language User's Guide", a 156-page instructional manual to XPL first published by XyQuest in January 1992. It discusses all the basic tools of XPL in considerable detail, and covers also some fairly sophisticated concepts and techniques. Many programming examples are provided. The information is equally applicable to XyWrite IV and Nota Bene for Windows -- the language simply has not changed since 1992 (apart from a few accommodations to the Windows environment in NBWin). The manual is offered in both text- based PDF, and XyWrite|NBWin document, formats. This very rare publication was never widely distributed. It can be downloaded as a complete package in ZIP form (PDF, XyWrite document, KBD file, programs, editor's preface); the PDF may also be viewed separately online. See the "Information and Documentation" section at XyWWWeb: http://users.datarealm.com/xywwweb/index.shtml#InfDo or grab the package directly: http://users.datarealm.com/xywwweb/XPL.ZIP and unZIP it in its own directory. ----------------------------- Robert Holmgren holmgren@xxxxxxxx -----------------------------
