Harry:

No wonder Xy is getting loopy. I assume the whole session crashes
shortly thereafter?

Here's a frame, DUET, that you may want to play with. Never published,
but I use it all the time. What this frame does is to allow you to run
a big PM like yours -- the kind that breaks the memory bank -- in a
separate, throwaway XyWrite session, thus insulating the current
session from the destabilizing effects of running such a big PM. To be
clear: you use DUET to launch the PM in the current session; the PM
actually runs in a separate XyWrite session, which terminates after
the PM is finished. If the PM makes changes to the file in the current
window, those changes are exported back into the original XyWrite
session (see the Notes in the Help frame for wrinkles. Updating
doesn't work, by the way, if the file in the current window is
Untitled; give it a name before attempting to DUET a PM against the
file.)

DECODE both of the blocks below; the first one is the U2 frame (add to
U2 in the usual way); the second is the Help frame (MErge it into
XYWWWEB.INF). Read the Help frame carefully before attempting to use
DUET. The only other person who's ever tested this is Robert. I'll be
curious to see what your results are.

Note that, for DUET to work, GOXY.EXE must be present in Editor's
directory. You can download it at XyWWWeb:
