Basically a an ASCII text Editor. I remember using Wordstar 2000 on my
Dad's old 8088 about 12 years ago. Good program, is there any place
where you can get it for free?
I also remember there was a DOS version of Wordperfect that looked
almost like the Win 3.1 version (WP 5.x or 6.x ??).
What I need this program for is writing essays on my old 386, VGA
monochrome display, 4MB Toshiba notebook (which I got for free from the
company I worked for, coz the wanted to trash it :-)))), and then
exporting them to Win - based Word to add the graphics and final layout.
I already checked the Simtel page and other download pages but was a
little overwhelmed by the vast amount of software available. So I
decided to ask for your experiences.
thanks a lot,
Jan
