Now that XY4vDosMac is cruising along, on to the next Mac adaptation.
I installed XY4DBMac from the latest download (Feb 21). Running it straight out of the box -- no tweaks, no substitute keyboard or settings files, no funny business, I promise -- I couldn't get it to send selected text to the Mac clipboard. 
The other direction--CTRL-Alt-V--works fine. Maybe there's a typo in the Ctrl-Alt 46= assignment? 
I also could use advice on how to have XY4vDosMac find my XY folder with all my text files. Holding down the Option key doesn't offer that prerogative.  I can also look into the MOUNT commands in DosBox but I haven't done that yet. 
Thanks--hoping this is a simple Q. And by the way, it's incredibly helpful to have the command-line  .rtf conversion. XY will never do hyperlinks, but .rtf will allow inserting them once the text gets there.
