--Hi Jeanette. Went and downloaded and installed it last night. Went in
like a hot knife into butter. I tried it out this morning, and it's OK.
Not the greatest, but more like Word and less like Notepad than say
Maxwell. It _does seem to have a sort of crippled spellchecker in that it
underlines misspelled words and allows you to, well,"hunt and peck"
edit. It'll tell you when you get the word right, but it is by no means
a real spell checker. When SO51 becomes available on CD at our local
silly-cone supermarket I might try it again. Maybe just my download was no
good, and since all the replies were from people who had succesfully
installed from cd... Well, we'll see.
