- Some people do want the Quick screen option of Wordworth 1/2 to be
- re-introduced, although we removed it because we wanted a completely
- WYSIWYG look, so it is possible that this will be brought back for a
- future version of Wordworth.
-
- Unfortunately we do not plan to re-introduce Amiga WordPerfect file
- support in Wordworth, all I can suggest is you convert these files to
- Wordworth format in Wordworth version 1 or 2 which will allow them to
- be loaded into any later version of Wordworth, then try to persuade
- your girlfriend to start using Wordworth!
