   I don't _really_ miss Xtree - though it was sometimes useful in seeing   
   what was _really_ going on, where the OS hides certain things (like   
   making files appear to be in different directories than they really are!).   
      
   But - for that one particular file - I'd developed "muscle memory" for   
   the editor. Also, its file size limit - somewhat below 64K - encouraged   
   me to keep the quotes file fresh, as I'd reached the limit, so had to   
   delete something to add anything.

   I've always found GitHub rather hard to understand, but I'm not sure how   
   it would in this case anyway - Xtree (and I presumw 1word) were   
   commercial products, not private/group projects.
