- I've always aimed to use off-the-shelf products myself. WP is excellent. MS
- Word from SCO is OK, but WP is the best. The pricing on 5.1 is more than 2x
- the pricing for 5.0. It is also almost exactly like the DOS version. The
- difference comes in the booster key sequences. Most terminals do not use their
- ALT keys, except in PC SCAN mode. You might want to try WP.
