Hi crowd,
I had Applix demonstrated and decided to take the gamble :-) And it's great!
My M$ spreadsheets import rather nicely and I don't expect M$ Weird will give
any problems either (didn't have the time to find out). There is a special
'import' wizard that allows for fine tuning while importing a non-native
format.
Insertion of special characters is easy: you can choose them from a palet (no
need to create special keys or anything) and it even imports FrameMaker MIF.
I'm hooked.

I have a libc5 system, but according to the README on the CD, the installation
program determines 'on the fly' the kind of system you have and installs the
proper packages. Use YaST and it's a piece of cake.
No, I don't have any connections with Applix, nor do I own shares or stock
options ;-)
