Could someone provide me with some information about
doing word processing in Chinese on the Macintosh
or on an IBM PC?

The only info I have indicates that this can be done
with the usual word processors, like Word, by using
a Chinese system. But what if I want to do both
Chinese and English word processing without having
to switch systems? Offhand, I think a word processor
specifically designed for Chinese would be more efficient.
Does such a thing exist?

If I want the Chinese system for the Mac, how do I
get it?

Also, is it really practical to do Chinese word
processing on a Mac? The main difficulty appears
to be the input process. Is the situation any better for
an IBM PC?

I would appreciate any information and advice on this.
