Message-ID: <901217094517.ISE2@UVVM.UVic.CA> Date: 17 Dec 90 17:45:17 GMT Sender: usenet@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 25 Subject 1: Ascii output from WStar Using WordStar 3.3 or 3.0, I have no problems creating an ascii file - even though I have not yet figured out the difference between document and non-document mode. I create files without justification, and don't use anything fancy such as underscore or bold. When it is time to save and up-load, I start printing (even though I don't even have a printer yet). One of the options is "print to disk" - this allows me to enter a file-name and save the file. This new file, when uploaded with Kermit, contains no control characters. Subject 2: Where can I get WordStar 4.0? Now a question: I would like to upgrade to WordStar 4.0 (for CP/M 2.24d) I have an IMS (Industrial Micro Systems) machine with the 8 inch floppy disk drives (DD/SD). Any used (and legal) copy with documentation for sale, or an address of a distributor with an idea of cost, would be much appreciated.
