I also remember ScreenWriter II.  I've written many a text file on a
software-based 70-column screen... and it automatically recognized my
//gs as a //e, so it could use the 80-col card.  Heck, my dad still
uses it on the //e at home.

Anybody out there remember "Word Handler"?  No limit on the size of
documents (that I know of).  Early problems (68 cols in software, just like
ScreenWriter; bizarre file format) were fixed in later versions (80-col
support, Word Handler <--> text file utilities).

I don't know that either of these run under ProDOS, though.
