Hi, its maybe a "question", and more a "question" than a "newbie
question", but I can put it as a "newbie observation", and as there are
so many very content users of this nearly perfect wordprocessor here:

When I open xwp (from the command line) from another directory than ~/,
it creates its .wpcr directory there. Wordperfect, is it so stupid or
did I just overlook something ? Is there any way to force it to find its
~/.wprc ?

Never seen something like that.

And it looks as if each user has to register wp. Not the best way of
promotion... Corel Draw....which had a bad reputation, now I know why.

And another question, Windowsbashing: somebody sent me something from
Westlaw, some of his articles, three files, but it arrived as one big
"winmail.dat". What is this ? A progress in computer technology or the
contrary ? Rethorical question. Anyway, any way to decipher this ?
It was difficult enough to transfer those articles, so I dont want to
bother this windows person in California with this.

H.

PS, Dataminerbashing, it worked with bla@bla.bla, anyway:
