   Hello everybody.
   I have indeed a simple but essential question:
   As I'm going to buy a Next next month (or a month later), I walk around - not
   only the clock - but some ftp sites with next stuff. Especially the newsletters
   and docs are of great interest for me. But: (Now it comes...)
   I got some, uncompressed them, untared them and....
		   ... got some files ending with .wn .
   Great. How can I handle those, that's the quiz.
   (1st prize: a smile in my eyes.)


I guess I didn't read your posting too carefully the first time.
That's what happens when you try to read everything :-).  Anyway, .wn
files are WriteNow documents.  WriteNow is the word processor that
comes with the NeXT.

BTW: Remember that you get Lotus Improv free if you buy before March 31
Starting April 1, it's gonna cost a few hundred bucks.
