Have you heard of Super Scribe? It's by Online Systems (don't know the
addr), and it was written for the ][+ all those years ago. It runs
-------------
I used to use SuperScribe and I even used Online's updated version that worked
on the //e.  It used the disk so you could write documents as large as the disk
permitted.  It was a very powerful program and could do footnoting, indexes,
and many other things with dot commands.

I think that now, memory-based word processors like Appleworks make
much more sense.  I'm using Mousewrite right now, but I don't need the ability
to handle huge documents.  Mousewrite can handle 15 pages which is all I really
need.
