Well, a few bits, but actually Appleworks V.1 started out with the Apple 
//e, Easy Pieces was the Apple /// version. Hundreds of thousands of Mac 
users, that were previously Apple // users, inundated Apple with 
complaints that Word was not integrated like Appleworks, so Claris, the 
software arm of Apple, came out with Clarisworks; I still have ver 2, 3 
& 4 . When Microsoft bought into Apple there was an agreement to change 
the name back to Appleworks, partly because the company in Detroit did 
not want to renew their licence as they were being sold.
There's more, but.... Appleworks (APW} is a bostin programme, totally 
underused by Mac people.
TTFN,
