MacWeek (5/21/91) writes that version 3.0 for the mac will be released this fall with lots of Mac System 7.0 features and paragraph and character styles. I for one would find NW alot more useful if it had styles (once you've had them it's tough to go back) :). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark Interrante Software Engineering Research Center mfi@serc.cis.ufl.edu CIS Department, University of Florida 32611 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote from a west Texas farmer "status quo is Latin for the mess we're in."

I placed it on an MS-sauce floppy, loaded it on the NeXT and....WriteNow gave be a bunch of unformatted text. I fired up NeXT WordPerfect 1.0.1 (release 3/18/91) and it came up _perfectly_. Chris
