[comp.sys.amiga] Word Processors...Which one?

sl9qw@cc.usu.edu (11/07/90)

        I am in need of a word processor for my Amiga.  Looking through past
AmigaWorlds hasn't helped much in my search. ( wonder why? )  Any input you
could offer would be very appreciated.  Here is basically the features I am
looking for:

WYSIWYG - (What you see is what you get) Very important.  I am tired of
          surprises.  (Ala, Word Perfect)

Picture handling ability (IFF)
Spell Checker
Thesaurus
Indexing, footnotes, etc.

I am looking for a word processor with the power of Word Perfect, except one
that doesn't _force_ you to learn every nuance to make something come out right.
I have used word perfect on the Amiga already, as you can tell, I don't like
it. ;-)  The program needs to be Amigaized, intuitive, and not cludgy.

	The current others that have caught my eye are: PenPal, Excellence!,
and ProWrite.  Are any of these any good?  If so, which ones and why?  My
system consists of an Amiga 1000 w/2.5 megs and a Epson LQ-510.

        Please include reasons why you like a program.  I will post a summary
to the net.  Many thanks...
