XyScript: beginner questions



I'm belatedly trying out XyScript under Windows and am enormously impressed by what Carl has accomplished.
I have a few basic questions, which are almost certainly answered in the 
manual, but I couldn't find the answers easily, and I think others may 
want to ask the same things:
1. How does one open the underlined items on the top-line menu? In 
standard Windows applications, Alt-F opens the File menu, Alt-E the Edit 
menu, etc. This doesn't do anything in XyScript when I open it with its 
default settings. What do I need to do to make XyScript's top-line menu 
work like other Windows menus?
2. In the lower left of the window, at the far left of what I think is 
the status bar, there is a field that seems to contain the current 
directory followed by an empty square box and then the current filename. 
On my system (ordinary Intel graphics) the field is almost unreadable 
because it uses gray letters on a black background. What needs to be 
done to make this field readable?
3. The same unreadable color combination appears in the 
currently-selected tab in the tab row below the top-line menu. What 
setting changes this?
Perhaps we could have a PDF showing the UI elements with each one 
labeled with its name so that we can identify it in the menu?

Again, this is a staggering achievement that I look forward to using.
