To All Appleworks Users:

        Well, I finally decided to dust off my AppleWorks disk and put
it to use (I prefer the powerful DOS 3.3 and AppleWriter //e).  Well,
I typed up my letter to my friend, and went to print it. But I found
out that the boldface ctrl-b (which I defined as ESC1 that's a ML-92)
did not work at all!  I cannot get the underline, boldface or any other
control character printer code to work!!

        My question:  How do I get the STUPID AppleWorks program to
figure out that I want the whole document in 'correspondence' quality?
Or, how do I embed control characters in my text so I can do this stuff
"by hand?"  Is AppleWorks worth the the word processor??

        My printer is an Okidata microline-92.  ESC1 is the start of
correspondence quality, ESC0 stops it.  That's the main thing I want
to work.
        Please reply via info-apple as quickly as possible.  My letter
is slowing becoming yesterdays news.

        After encountering this problem, I remember why I put the dumb
AppleWorks in moth balls!!

                Totally frustraded and anti-anythingWorks,

                Scott Bresnahan  (BRESNAHA @ BCVAX3)

PS:
* My view of ProDos:

        ProDos is NOT better for 140k drives...it wastes
too much time and space.  Who cares about sub directories unless you
have 1.5+ meg available to you!  I'm use a VAX with 2meg used.  And I
only have 3 sub directories.  ProDos is like the Mac.  Closed to the
user.  That's why I don't have a Mac, that's why I don't use SlowDos,
ah, ProDos.
