It would appeal to the same users as MacWrite plus people who >feel they need a little more control over the appearance of their documents. > One other comment about WriteNow is that you can't move the insertion point without using the mouse. I tried QuickKeys to be able to use the arrow keys, page keys etc in WriteNow. I could move up and down the doc, but found no way to move the insertion point (start typing and the screen would return to the previous location). QK's has a mouse click under the menu, but sure wouldn't do anything in WriteNow. MS Word may be harder, but at least Word allows me to use either the keyboard or the mouse. jimd Bush is giving cabinet posts to the people that helped him the most with his campaign... Dukakis should end up with a good government job after all.
