[net.micro.pc] Word Processing & Mail List Query

RICK%MIT-MC@sri-unix.UUCP (08/03/83)

From:  Richard P. Wilkes <RICK @ MIT-MC>

I am looking for a *good* word processing program for the IBMPC which
fully supports the NEC7700 series printers.  I am kinda familar with
WordStar, but if anyone has any real favorites or any flaming
negatives (EasyWriter I?), please drop me a quick note.

Also, I need a simple mail-list program for the same machine which
will handle 1000 entries sorted alphabetically, zip, etc. and with an
option to select by key.  I don't really like BASIC programs, unless
they have a very quick sort routine and a very good editor.

Please respond to me directly; I am not on the list. And, thanks
again. I am sure that these questions have been asked in the past, but
I am in a bit of a bind and figured this would be a quick way of
getting some info on where to start my search and what packages could
be eliminated from the start.
