I am curious if this is the word processor that appears in the boarder when you select create file from the filecabinet window? I recall trying this quite a while ago, and I didn't think it was a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) word processor, so I just de-installed it. Also, I couldn't stand editing a file in that dumb window! Vi also comes up that way (in ua) if you don't have a word processor. There should be some option that would allow you to use the entire screen if you using the editor via the ua/filecabinet/create file setup.
