Wordperfect has had the 4.2 version (sunview) out for the Sun some time....
We've been using it for at least a year....

Wordperfect is accepting orders for version 5.0 for the Sun...  I don't know
if it's Sunview or Openlook...    Delivery is not until next year....

Some of our guys are running WP 5.0 in DosWindows 1.0...    It's a kludge,
but it can be done....
