Most impressive Carl !! I have a question now about word counting. Is there any way to count words in XyWrite other than issuing the WC command? What I would like ideally is a command that while defining, say with Begin define but before End define, would interactively show the word count. The reason is that I need to extract, from a larger text file, sections of 700 to 900 words. Just wondering - - perhaps this is a problem that already has a solution? - - B At 30/11/2014 01:09, you wrote:Preamble: To skip over the technical detail and just see what I've been up to, click on the video link at the bottom of this post.
