Has anyone successfully created other than trivial .RTF
files using something other than one of the Word family
of word processors?

I have WordPerfect 5.1 and was hoping I wouldn't need to
switch, but WP 5.1 can't automatically generate anything
like the .RTF files included with HELPEX.

What does Rich Text Format mean for a WordPerfect user?
A big headache?
