The inability of Edit (even with RTF) to do footnotes, page numbering, headers  
and footers makes Edit most unusable as a word processor.  It's a nice text  
editor for code and informal letters, but it's certainly no replacement for  
even the simplest of modern word processors.  Also, NeXTs inoperative spell  
checker and lack of integrated thesaurus work against Edit being anything more  
than a fancy code editor.

I wonder if this is part of a unbundling plan or part of a plan to make the  
common denominator something NeXT can do as well (the majority of modern  
computers can read and write ASCII at the very least).
