I haven't used FrameMaker on NeXT, but there sure seems to be a lot of talk about it here...I have PasteUp, however, and have little use for another layout program...also, I have numerous complaints similar to the ones Jeff made... What the NeXT community needs is a REAL NeXT word processor, not some port or psuedo-whatever-wanna-be...MicroSoft...NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER !!!!! Bill Gates said he'd piss on the machine before he developed for it...I'd sooner piss on Word before I used it... MS Word is the WORST word processor out there...even AppSoft's cheesey WriteNow is miles ahead of Gates' garbage! Word Perfect doesn't have a bad thing going - if they'd just take the time to fix it!!! I have heard AppSoft is developing a brand-new-from-the-ground-up word processor - I wish them the best of luck and can't wait to see it! I just wish Paragon Concepts would write a NeXT version of Nisus...then I'd have a reason to shut up!
