Maybe we don't advertize enough, but Fortune has an extremely user-friendly word processing system which runs under UNIX. The user interface is based on Wang word processing which we have taken an expanded upon. Our package supports foreign characters, and by chang- ing our strings files, we can make the system come up under any language desired. We have currently implemented Fortune:Word in English, German, and French with more to come. We have text editing, hyphenation/pagination, a spelling checker and other goodies. We also have the software to transfer documents to and from Wang word processing.
