As a paraplegic with full control of his arms who has done six issues of
disABILITY NEWS-letter (which WILL be back next month!), I don't know how
applicable my experience is to you.  When I had my Commodore 128, I used GEOS
2.00 to write, edit and print the first four issues of it.  The program could
make a nice two-column page format, and had good fonts for the type and artwork
tools just like the Macintosh MacWrite/Draw disks.  When my machine broke down
and I upgraded to my Amiga 500, I have not found any inexpensive desktop
publishing software to continue publishing.  Thus, I did the last two issues on
my school's computer lab's Macs.
If interested in getting a copy of No. 6, send me a self-addressed stamped
envelope.
Hope this helps!
