Being a user of both WordPerfect (6.2 for DOS) and LaTeX (emTeX
by Eberhard Mattes, for DOS), I'll *try* to have a look at it.
But
I'm not much on writing documents, word processing, typesetting,
desktop publishing, etc. So I'm kinda out of my league here. But I
have vaguely read up on some tiny bits of it lately, and I've also run
across an interesting package (that still supports DOS, among others)
called WP2LaTeX, which is
here, output of ./file feedos images for source 1.44 official floppy and my 34mb
freedos.img: x86 boot sector, code offset 0x58, OEM-ID "LINUX4.1",
Media descriptor 0xf8, heads 64, sectors 68000 (volumes > 32 MB) , FAT
(32 bit), sectors/FAT 523, serial number 0xa6a51e0c, label: "
