Quoting John Coyle <[email protected]>:
First WP software I used was WordPerfect - the name tells a lie, it
was an absolute nightmare to use
compared with Word, when Word arrived I switched in a heartbeat! I
also used Lotus WordPro, not as
good as Word in some ways but had advantages in others - like
allowing me to define a custom
envelope size before Microsoft acknowledged sizes other than
American. Sill use it for some
purposes - you can tell it was well-written software when it was
created in 1997 and still works on
Windows 7.
I liked Wordperfect - as a DOS wordprocessor it was extremely
powerful. Never tried Word for DOS, though. Once Windows 3 arrived
Word trumped just about everything else. Wordperfect just took too
long to make the transition.
