Actually, it's m$ word that I criticize. Not that WP didn't have serious 
issues, but IMHO it is clearly the better of the two products. But I had access 
to BookMaster when I was using WP.

Shmuel,

Why did you slander Worperfect like that?  What did it ever do to you?

My preference, alas, is dead: BookMagager BUILD/MVS (or VM), which is built on 
BookMaster and DCF. Lacking that, I make do with LaTeX, which I find powerful 
but clumsier that the tools built on Script.

I make extensive use of nested bulleted and numbered lists, and when I attempt 
to copy an entry to a different list, word garbles the markup horribly. Is 
there an equivalent to the reveal mode in word pervert that would allow me to 
correct that bug? The best that I've been able to come up with is to copy the 
entry to notepad and then copy from notepad.

I would recommend a LaTeX environment, e.g.,  MiKTeX, TeXworks. Check out 
resources at CTAN.
