I didn't use word processors back in those days (the editing I did was in
tools like Devpac to write assembler).

I recently set up the AO486 core on my Mister FPGA (from which I happen to br
writing this very message) and I installed Word Perfect (the text-based
version on it).

I have to say, it's actually really good. I'd prefer to use that one than MS
Word that I have to use at work. Every single feature I use in MS Word is
better in this 30 year old software.
