Thanks to all who responded about word processing packages for the UNIX-PC Summary: Micrsoft Word seems to be available running under UNIX and also the MS-DOS version apparently runs on a DOS-73 card There are a couple of other packages including one called SMART which also has spreadsheet and database capabilities. Most (all?) packages are getting rather old and as the market seems to have dried up are not being upgraded. Thanks also to thos who offered to seel me their word processors. One kind person has actually donated a package so on a performance/price consideration I now have the ideal. Thanks you one and all ... Ken Cochran mtdca!kwmc

Any of those people who were turned down, want to consider selling their word processor to me? If so, please give me an offer, and keep in mind I'm a poor college student. Also, could you give me some of the "features" of whatever package you have? Thanks, - sparkie -- p.s. Please reply to one of the following addresses and NOT the one listed above.
