In the June 86 edition of Mac User on pg. 103, there is an ad for a product
called Word Tools that will purportedly help keep or make us appear literate.
(Some days it's not easy.) The ad either stated or inferred that by the time
we read their ad Word Tools would be available. After excitedly calling
Aegis, it appears that it is another case of vapour ware. There is no
shipping date as yet. But they were kind enough to take my name for their
mailing list--at least they didn't want to take my money for a promise to
deliver some time in the future (I learned the hard way that you DON'T do
this ...). It really sounds like a good product. It would be nice if they
merged in a super-dooper word processor as well--but I guess they want to
catch all the MacWrite/Word users out there. One can only wait. (* SIGH *)
