Hi Terri,
For years I used WordStar on the old CP/M and DOS machines. I used Duxbury
for the VersaBraille and for DOS, and help automate Braille Institute's
Press with batch files for processing Duxbury files. I still use a patched
version of WordStar version 4 to imitate the braille page after it is passed
through the DOS compiler. That's where I learned how to read computer
braille. I fought and fought going to WordPerfect, not being used to the
different menu system, and fought going to Word. Yes, I use Word and can
teach it. There are things in WordPerfect for Windows that I like better
than the way Word does it. But our facility uses Word, so there I am.
Sigh. I wish things were easier, and sometimes things evolve faster than we
can get used to.
Francis
