Does anyone know of software which will make the combination of a Mac
and an Imagewriter I or II act like an old-fashioned electronic
typewriter -- that is, when you hit a key the Imagewriter just types
the corresponding letter right where the print head happens to be.
(Arrow keys might make the paper move up/down/left/right just like the
platen on a typewriter.)

We need this capability for filling out preprinted forms and other
old-fashioned typewriter-style applications?  It's frustrating having
to keep an old IBM Selectric around, just to fill out various kinds of
preparinted application forms and recommendation forms.

Thanks...
