Anybody know of anywhere that I can get a wordprocessor from? I am posting this for somebody who uses Wordperfect, but is switching to a Unix system and is looking for a replacement. Any pointers/tips appreciated.. -- Peter Wemm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ peter@cs.curtin.edu.au (Home) +61-9-450-5243 Curtin University of Technology, Perth, Western Australia.

If they use ((free) GNU Emacs (see *.emacs.* newsgroups)) they can use
this emulation package (which I've never tried)...
Emacs Lisp Code Apropos -- "wordst"
wordstar 90-1-31

If you don't have emacs, you could get the dte editor. It uses the wordstar command set and has special features useful to programmers. You would have to compile the C source yourself. It is setup to be compiled under UNIX and MSDOS. This editor does not have features for boldfacing, underlining, etc... Great for data and programs. via ftp: nic.funet.fi (128.214.6.100) It was in some editors directory listed as dte5-1.zip; I don't have the full path, sorry. Ryan (tannerr@prism.cs.orst.edu)
