Did you delete GoXy?  Type at a DOS prompt "GoXy.exe /?" and see
what happens...  Is GoXy.exe in C:\WINDOWS\system32 (the best
place for it) or where?  GoXy MUST be in the %PATH%.

Next, edit JARKH9R1.BAT (or whatever the name of the temporary
filename) and enable echoing:
  ::@echo off
or
  rem @echo off
so you can see what's happening under the hood.  Also comment
out the last "del" line, and finally run the batch file manually
at a DOS prompt.  Where does it hang?  Make sure you've got a
valid D:\XY4\FO.PS, which is the output of TYP-ing your document
using a PostScript printer file like POSTGHST.PRN (and are you
in fact using a XyWrite PS printer driver???).
