RF> Hello out there. I am getting ready to upgrade my WordPerfect
RF> package from 1.0.x to 2.0. I have not yet seen any comments or
RF> reviews about this new version, and I was wondering if there was
RF> anyone that would like to put their 2 cents in. I'm not sure of
RF> what the major differences are, and I am curious.

In my opinion, WordPerfect 2.0 is the best word processor I've ever seen!  I
used to be a heavy duty Word 4.0 user but WordPerfect 2.0 blows it away.
(I've never used Nisus so I can't make comparisons there.)  One of the best
features is the very powerful macro feature.  Programmable macros in WP can
do just about anything.  Also, I like the way you can attach resources to
documents--much the same way you can do it in HyperCard.  I tried
WordPerfect 1.0.x but never used it because it wasn't orginized very well
and wasn't "Mac-like".  But this new version is a GREAT improvement over
1.0.x.  Throw MS Word away!  WordPerfect 2.0 is here!
