Paul, you probably wouldn't even want to touch this piece of software now because it's so ridiculously old, but I remember using ScreenWriter II on my old II+, complete with floppy disk caching, and 70 column (or less- whatever you wanted!) screen which didn't require an 80-column card. Boy, was it slow! But, it worked on superlong papers. As far as being easy to use, it wasn't any AppleWorks, but I cranked out several long term papers on it... Ahhhh...Those were the days! Jeff Stern
