Wordprocessor Needed
5 messages in this thread
People,
I am looking for a word processor for a friend who has an old A500 with no
HD or second drive (so it must be small to fit on one disk) but needs to
have such features as word wrap, margin settings etc so they can use it
for college work.
I've looked at most the "text editors" in the library but they all seem to
be for programmers and as such don't offer the above features.
If anyone knows of one (even if it's only available via ftp) please let me
know
TIA

Hi Kevin,
I've got an old version of Scribble! by Micro-Systems Software catching
dust here (original disk & manual). Runs fine even on vanilla A500. Let me
know if this would do for your friend. He can have it for free.

Michael,
I'll try another text editor I've had mailed to me first, if it's no good
I'm sure my friend would "LOVE" to take it off your hands (and probably
buy you a pint or two!), I'll let you know.
I'll check out a price for the HD for you and let you know tomorrow (if
poss.)

Hallo Kevin,
Did you also tried TextPlus 3.0? It is small and fast, but can not mix
text with graphics and you can only use printer fonts.
(e.g. Pica, Elite etc.)

If you want further information feel free to ask me.

Franz,
Where would I find TextPlus 3.0? It sounds just what my friend is loking
for.
