Carl,

1. Would it be as good to include in the startup.int a command to go to DOS and execute the MODE command?

2. I have to confess that either I'm having a senior moment or I just never learned what this means:

SA %02

Could you elucidate?

Thanks,
Harry

And thank you, Fred, for pointing out the glitch. As an alternative to launching XyWrite with the Editor command, the download now includes a BATch file (EDIT.BAT) that forces the DOS session into a 25x80 display before starting XyWrite, so that the two screen sizes (DOS and Xy default) are congruent. Of course, the user can always adjust these to taste.
