Hi all,

I recently discovered XYplorer and decided to give it a try.
I tested many alternatives in the past, powerdesk, Total Commander, Directory Opus...
And after having tried XYp for few dozen of minutes, I decided to buy it.
I appreciate several things in this program :
- It is light and powerfull,
- previously I were using Total Commander which have a great feature, its plugin extensibility... This is great but the problem is that you have to maintain many and many plugins to stay up to date and have a full working solution...
Many essential functions are already inside XYp...
- and the most important for me, as I'm blind, is the ability to achive the most essential tasks with the keyboard, as I'm not a very great mouse fanatic...
- And last but not least, this program for me, which use a screen reader, a software to work under Windows, this program is reasonably accessible...

Congratulations Donald for your great work...

Well, it should be all essential tasks -- so if some area is still too mousy, let me know!

I also wanted to welcome Claude to the XY "family", and think that his input may cause a few tweaks that could open or broaden a market area for XY, which is the visually challenged. These changes could make it better than alternative products and a review of XY in a forum or blog for that group might lead to increased sales also.
