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.
