If you can find a copy of the old shareware "Galaxy Write" for MS-DOS, this was a good word processor for me. When I was at university, I used Galaxy Write to write my term papers. Not too dissimilar from WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS (granted, not as powerful.) I tried to find a download, but it doesn't seem to be at simtel anymore. Actually, simtel no longer seems to have any MS-DOS downloads these days. Maybe Eric or another webmaster can take simtel off the "Links" page. If you want to see what Galaxy looked like, I used to have screenshots on my web page. Some kind person has mirrored them for me: http://freedos.gds.tuwien.ac.at/jhall/photos/galaxy/ -jh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
