Anyone know why Appleworks (2.0) doesn't recognize the GS clock (or what
one ought to do to make it?)  -- don't know if they made any changes to
it, but the package it came in (I bought it when I bought the GS -- had
no reason to run it on my II+) explicitly has the words Apple IIGS on
it.

[side comment:  somewhere earlier in a flush of enthusiasm I said
slightly kinder words about Appleworks than I ought to have:  the word
processor really isn't right -- I hate menus, Open-Apple is not at all
convenient for a touch typist, and the cursor/delete commands are
lacking all the sorts of things an approximate emacs set would give you
(beginning/end of line, delete word, forward backward, ...)  -- but its
easy to learn, the suite of three is nice and useful (my 15 year old had
his 175-member club membership list on the database in two or three
hours -- downloaded in ASCII from an IBM PC from the previos pres) and
the price wasn't too bad...]
