Paul,

Glad a and c are working now.

With regard to b: If you do INIREAD d:\path\config.txt,lins<Helpkey>, do you see "43" on the PRompt line? If not, is there some quirk about the formatting of the LINS statement in your CONFIG.TXT? The usual format, of course, would be either
LINS=43
or
LINS = 43

Also, is the call to XyWebU2.int located below the line that loads SETTINGS.DFL -- in case there is an inconsistent sl or sw setting there?

In truth, if you're not running multiple configurations of vDosXy with different screen dimensions, you can omit the call to XyWebU2.int. (It also initializes U2 AutoSAve and command archiving, but there are other ways to do that, too, if you're doing either of those.)

With regard to the OED, I misspoke. I'm running OED v4. When I access it from XyWrite I use a very simple frame OED that looks like this:

{{5oed}}
{2}DZ <IF<VA$DE>{greater_than}0>BX sad/nv LPT4Q2 BX waitQ2 <EI>;*;
<SV50,d:\path\OEDv4.lnk>JM 2.startQ2 {2}

Here is the real code. Command DEC<Helpkey> to decode, adjust path to the LNK file, then DeFine and issue ADD2U2<Helpkey> to add to U2:

XPLeNCODE v2.0 (ENCODE.A3X)
b-gin [UNTITLED]
{123}{123}5oed{125}{125}[cr|lf]{002}[DZ_]{<}IF{<}VA$DE{>}>0{>}
[BX_]sad/nv LPT4[Q2_][BX_]wait[Q2_]{<}EI{>};*;[cr|lf]{<}SV50,d:\p
ath\OEDv4.lnk{>}[JM_]2.start[Q2_]{002}[cr|lf][cr|lf]
-nd
XPLeNCODE
