In the late 80s-early 90s, WordPerfect was "the standard" word processor, and in a few niches still is. One consequence is that just about every other one had to cope with WP files. MS's RTF is a pretty useful swap format, but I find that WP 5.1 has excellent compatibility for formatted text. -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
