This MacWrite-like word processor is supposed to be a companion to Paintworks Plus. It was expected to be out in October, 86. I tried to use MultiScribe GS, but found it *extremely* buggy and lacked many advertised features in the early release. After complaining to Styleware, they sent me a copy of version 2.0 for the IIe. This seems to work ok, but does not allow figures from Paintworks Plus to be pasted in. Also, while it has the "look and feel" of MacWrite, there are enough differences to be annoying.
