I think that version 5.1 of WordPerfect (which runs very well under PC-Speed
on the ST) is very nearly an ideal solution. It offers very nice mouse
support - you can use the mouse for nearly everything but text entry - but
retains keyboard oriented commands for those who prefer them. Version 4.1
for the ST has the same options, but unfortunately is not as powerful as
5.1. It does not offer WYSIWYG, except in screen preview, but this makes for
much faster display speed.
