An excellent word processor and text editor is PC-WRITE, a program distributed
on a "commission shareware" basis.  PC-WRITE can be had for $10 from the
author, Quicksoft (219 First N. #224, Seattle, WA 98109, phone (206)
282-0452).  It supports two windows on the screen, moving text from file to
file, suspending editing to go play in DOS underneath PC-WRITE (and returning
to PC-WRITE just where you were), on-screen help, etc. etc. etc.  Version 1.4
is good, but version 1.5 is outstanding (and has the extra features like
extensive on-screen help I raved about in the last sentence).  I'd use it
no matter what it cost.
(Within reason!)
By the way, if you really like it, the author would like you to send $75, in
return for which you get the source (!!), phone support, and a $25 commission
for each suckerother person you get to "register" (pay $75 for) a copy
got from you.
I have no connection with Quicksoft other than being an appreciative
customer.
