I was just looking for that (to see what in the CFG file is different in different versions)! Thank you.


The changes in the HELP command are great ideas.

Now THAT is a creative idea! I bet I'll need that within the week!


I may be confusing XyScript with my new email program (updated Eudora), but I think XyScript doesn't always give error messages when an operation isn't able to complete (say because of file not found). When I do CA foo.bar and there is no foo.bar it opens one--as if I had typed NE foo.bar. Due to my relative unfamiliarity with Linux path specifications, this happens to me about 5 times a day. Not a big deal, but non-opening plus an error message would be my preference.
