Posted: Sun Dec 17, 2023 3:34 pmAm trying to use the alias shortcut (from the list) for helplines...ie. XL or XLINE and neither seems to work. rebooting, etc. does nothing and works fine in 22...(which I still have loaded and am currently using)

It should be something simple as:
Alias=^:^S4^

If you use what I had the ":" will take you to the Utility Menu, then S4 to Helplines.
