Harry,I do not know about these cloud scenarios but installing XyWrite 4 (as well as most other DOS Xy products with the exception of NB4) locally in various code page versions with better character support and new more reliable Ghostscript print subsystems will soon be automated.

Hmmm, running XyWrite "from the cloud." Sounds intriguing. It means running a vDosPlus or DOSBox-x version on Linux, which must be possible if they can run on the Mac. I'm wondering: what about having running versions of each flavor of XyWrite that anyone could use (online? locally?) to run his own config files and XPL. And maybe some shared XPL scripts. Since the .EXE has no owner any longer, couldn't this be done? Like a portable Xy-in-the-sky. In analogy with Google Docs.--Harry
