What a great history of FM...I started out on Ventura Publisher, while working for Xerox, who had purchased the software and didn't know squiddly squat about it so, as someone who had gone NUTZ trying to find some way to do process doc and software manuals without going postal, I set out to learn it, then demoed, then moved to FrameMaker in about '92 as I recall. Oh, and I agree with Word for DOS...I fought, kicking and screaming, when the Windows versions came out. Still do in point of fact!
