You should probably look at WordPerfect.  This is available on a number
of different boxes including Xenix, VAXen running [V]omits [M]y [S]ystem.

I have been *VERY IMPRESSED* with WordPerfects Xenix ports.  These people
actually have taken the time to understand Unix, terminals...

I personally do all my stuff in xroff, but many of my clients prefer to
use WYSIWYG word processors.  It also requires little retraining since
everyone seems to know WordPerfect (MessyDos users anyway).

I have no affilition with WordPerfect.
