Re: [Eug-lug] help for Walter

[Max Lemieux]

I would suggest using a different word processor (or even text editor) 
such as is included with Fedora. OpenOffice.org is a great replacement 
for MS Office, and probably even reads/writes WordPerfect format. You 
can save your file to your home directory (/home/walter or whatnot) then 
copy the file to the floppy disk using Konqueror or whatever GUI file 
manager you have.

If you're in text mode, "pico" or "nano" are good choices.
Not to be annoying, but is there some reason you need to use the ancient 
and outdated storage of a floppy? Can you email your file to yourself 
and download it somewhere else? Is your machine hooked up to the Net?

Cheers,
Max
