I just feel that word processing is not my forte, so to be user-friendly, a wp should make it as easy as possible for me to concentrate on writing and the end result, not worrying about how to process a document with complex commands and codes. Besides, i like my cut and paste, italics, bold, etc, as well as auto spell check and convenient page layout. Now, i'm not saying i want bloatware. Frankly, if abiword were reasonably bug free, i would be a happy camper: 3 megs, and does all the basics. But i don't trust it right now, and it is still missing some major features. WordPerfect and StarOffice are huge, and Applix costs more that i have (unless they offer student discount!). -jm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
