The Xy command feature is not documented, but when you're ready to try it, post a query here and
I'll step you through it. U2 is required. Briefly, the usage on the WinRun command line is: "CM
xy_command [arg(s)]". The analogous XyWrite usage (to run WinRun commands) is CM
WinRun_command<Helpkey>.

BTW, you can also run Xy commands from the Windows command prompt, with "WR.BAT CM
Xy_command". All will become clearer once you get acquainted with WinRun and its constituent
files.
