I own both an Apple IIgs and an Apple II+.  I use Appleworks 2.0 on my 
Apple IIgs at school and I would like to be able to run Appleworks on my
Apple II+ while I am at home (and also so my family can use it when I am
away at school.)

Could anyone please explain what I would have to do to get APPLEWORKS to
run on my Apple II+.  I realize that I might have to purchase an earlier
release of Appleworks (1.3 perhaps?)  Yet, I am not certain of this.

Basically, I have an original Apple II+ with the Apple 16k Card installed
(Apple Language card?) giving a grand total of 64k of total RAM memory.

Also, what can be done to avoid the obvious hassel involved due to the 
lack of an open-apple key on my Apple II+ keyboard? I ima|ine that the 
solution has to do with using the paddle buttons, also I need some sort
of lower-case converter for my keyboard.

Put simply, I would like to know what the cheapest meathod is for getting
Appleworks to run on a II+ (for the least pmount of money.

Alas, I fear the cheapest solution is to go out and purchase a Lazer 128.
I think this is terrible.  Oh well, I have always felt bad about the
fact that Apple II and Apple II+ computers have been pretty much left out
of all the current Apple II software developments.  Sure it's still good
for playing games and watching bouncing ball demos (which by the way I
really enjoyed), However, it is too bad that they never cam out with a
"IIe Transporter" card which upgraded the capabilities of the original
Apple II.  Oh well.

Thanx in advance for any help.
