Re: Xymode NB or NBX screenshots web page

[As of this moment, I'm only up to this message, in addressing 
the 2 weeks plus backlog. So, my comments may be redundant 
with others since posted.]

In these screenshots, the emerging UI is looking a lot more 
NB-like than it is evoking Xy 3 or 4. Or perhaps a touch of 
the old A La Carte menus. Is this new version editor going to 
be -- in software parlance -- skinnable, by any chance?

 I thought we should have a better
 subject line for discussion of the new program, and I think
 XyWrite mode for Nota Bene is about 2 light years too long
 (Steven at Nota Bene says it can't be called
 "XyWrite 5"). So it's a choice among:
 XyModeNBXmode NBXyNBXNBNBXNBXy
 Using XyNB or NBXy has the virtue
 of intelligibility, but will be meaningless to the
 non-XyWrite world (if we care about them).
 "NBX" is the most natural and falls most trippingly off the tongue. 
 I hope you noticed that the screen
 shots I posted showed me calling the file by entering this
 on the command line:
     ca long filename with spaces.xy
 I didn't even have to use quotes.
 The place to go to see screenshots is now:
