From what I gather WriteNow! and WordPerfect don't do tables at all.
The latest NeXTWORLD has a preview of PasteUp and says that it too
doesn't do tables either.  Is there anything other than
FrameMaker(even coming up) that will do tables?  How about Pages?

I have a lot of experience with FrameMaker and it's tables, but I've
had my share of problems with Frame, including crashing and instantly
logging me out in the middle of working, so I'm almost ready to ditch
Frame.

If any app developers out there are planning to make a word processor
or desktop publisher, please contact me so I can send you a wish list
on tables and other topics.

Thank you.
