We tried WriteNow on our Mac II with terrible/disasterous results.  Our
secretary was using it and ocassionaly when she would adjust a ruler
WriteNow would bomb.  Since we consider program bombs a big bug, we threw
the program out.  Other word processors behave much better on the II.  BTW,
I called the WriteNow support people and they disavowed all knowledge of the
bugs we mentioned and offered no suggestions.  We even had a WriteNow file
that anytime you opened it caused WriteNow to bomb.  It was very sad.
