Hello, everyone.

1) Does anyone know of an ST word processor that can import GDOS fonts and
   also support dead-keying (which is the ability to place one character
   above another after "backspacing", useful, for example 
   for placing accent marks over arbitrary characters in foreign languages)?  

2) I bought Flight Simulator, Test Drive and Chessmaster 2000, and none of
   these programs will run off my hard disk! I have heard of the Alpha 
   Systems product Switch Back which claims to unprotect programs like
   these for hard disk users.  Is this the only alternative?

Thanks very much, and happy holidays!
