Something that might lead her <through some exercises to get her familiar with using the interface. <Any suggestions? Please post or (pref.) mail reply. BTW, it's a Mac SE HD20. After she does the standard Apple tour, try the MacDraw II tours (two disk- ettes and one in the book) if you have access to those. By that time, she'll have some good experience with the graphic interface and some practice with the mouse. Depending upon what kind of writing she wants to do, maybe you can find a similar tour or tutorial for a WP package. Perhaps, after that, she won't feel the need for a general book about the Mac interface. Supposedly you learn best what you do. Shirley Kehr
