Well, I never got version 4.2, I'm still using 4.1, quite effectively too I 
might add.  I know several people who own Amigas who think that their wp
software is just fine.  Really, there are so many wp apps out there that there
is no problem finding one that suits.

Personally, for programming, I use MicroEmacs, the text editor that is 
included with the Amiga operating system, it suits my needs just fine.
