     I'm looking for a word processing program for my Amiga 500.
Unfortunately, the ones I've seen so far (i.e. WordPerfect and
ProWrite) don't have all the features I want. WordPerfect is a
powerful program, but I fell it does not fully take advantage of the
Amiga's capabilities. ProWrite is nice, but its limited on features.
The features I'm interested in are WYSIWYG, good handling of fonts, headers
and footers, and automatic footnoting. The ability to generate
PostScript output would be welcome, but not essential for my needs.

     I've heard of Excellence! and PenPal, but have never actually seen
them. If someone has information or has used any of these programs I
would appreciate if he/she could e-mail it to me. Any other
suggestions or recommendations are also welcome.

					Thanks in advance.
