Have you really used it?  Admittedly it isn't the best file requester in
the world, but it is much better than many.  (Dpaint III comes to mind.)
My problem with wordperfect is that it is too slow.  (And doesn't handle
anything other than topaz 8, but that is another subject.)  But I would 
run in horror if it were any more amigaized.
