I have found MicroSoft Word to be a good word processor.  I only used
version 5.5 a few times, and so far I am more used to the feel of word
5.0a.  At least in 5.0a you can use multiple windows.  Not sure what the
limit is, but 8 seems to ring a bell.  (As they can't overlap, you wouldn't
want much more than 5 even is 60 line mode).
