I just got a copy of Nisus and am extremely impressed.  It does footnotes and
endnotes but I haven't tried it for those yet.  We have been using Endnote Plus
and before that the regular Endnote but have never really liked it.  It just is
not seamless enough.  Word is a piece of crap compared to Nisus in almost every
way.  However MacWeek had an article this week about Word 5 that is due out in
the fall.  You may want to look at that.  I would like to give you more info
but I have just gotten started with Nisus.  So far I am very impressed and
would rate it as a real Mac program, this is one of those gems that someone has
obviously put their heart and soul into.  I own a copy of pretty much every Mac
word processor and Nisus is the first that has been able to make me leave
WriteNow, I never thought that would happen!
