Recently I got CWP from comp.binaries.ibm.pc.  This is supposed to be
a Chinese wordprocessor supporting both traditional and simplified
Chinese characters, both 9 and 24 pin printers, and all standard IBM
PC graphics cards.  Sounds good, right?

Unfortunately it doesn't work on my computer, an 8088-based PC clone
with a Hercules-type graphics card, running PC DOS 3.2.  I get a
message about an "overlay error".  Somebody else in this newsgroup
mentioned a similar problem running CWP under DOS 3.31.

Has anybody succeeded in making CWP work?  

Also, how can I contact the author of CWP?  There is no documentation
and I didn't save the original posting.
