I realize you may mean no *word processors* are being put out that
work with the II+, but there is certainly *some* current software
that does.

For example:
  Most of the ProSel utilities (Glen Bredon, commercial)
  The Davex command shell (yours truly, Shareware)

P.S.--Did my note about Joysticks and the GS show up?  I sent it a
      few days ago, but it hasn't echoed back to here yet.  Bottom
      line is that the GS ROM routines *can* read the joystick in
      both slow and fast speeds.
