Does anyone have experience with Unix based word processing systems? I know
of 3 systems:
XED from Computer Methods Limited,
LEX_11 from EEC Systems, and
Office Power from Computer Consoles Inc.
Are there others out there? How do they compare with vi, troff, and me? Are
any compatible with troff?

It contains a heads-up editor-formatter and a few other niceties. And to quote "No, it doesn't use NROFF to do the formatting." Contact your friendly neighborhood AT&T software sales rep, or the licensing people in Greensborough, which ever comes first. -Mike
