     I can't speak about SynCalc, but AtariWriter+ most definitely knows the
difference between the 800XL and the 130XE.  The disk on which AW+ is shipped
contains the 800XL version on one side and the 130XE on the other.  The 130XE
version, according to the manual, uses the bank switching facilities of the
XE to give you 3 buffers of ~15K characters each, as opposed to the ~12K buffer
you get on the 800XL.
