By this time, I assume most of you have seen the initial reviews of
FullWrite Professional on the net. There is a lot of enthusiasm about the
product from many netters, but most have several gripes about various
aspects of the product. Since it seems that Ashton-Tate is planning to
support the product, and add features to make it a viable competitor in the
high-end word processor market, I thought I'd make a list of things I'd like
to see in upcoming additions, and mail it into Ashton-Tate.
Before sending this letter, however, I'd like to solicit any suggestions
and/or gripes you have about FullWrite. I'm not guaranteeing that I'll put
your comments onto the list, but I'm sure there are people out there who've
come up with valid gripes and/or suggestions which would never enter my
head. A friend at work and I were discussing placing graphics in sidebars,
and it ended up with the idea for an option that would size a sidebar around
an illustration -- a task which presently is rather tedious (best method so
far: drop the picture into the sidebar, open the picture icon inside the
sidebar, look at the rulers and determine the dimensions of the
illustration, go back to the sidebar and set the size in accordance with the
illustration's dimensions).
I'm planning to mail the list in mid-June. PLEASE E-mail suggestions to me
at the address below, and thanks in advance!
