Also, Macros were exquisite. Go in Macro mode, and those 40 function-key based key strokes were entered by simply hitting the function key. It would know NOT to to the command.

Also, special characters did NOT requite a character map or memorization of alt-codes most of the time. If you want to make an "ñ", just hit cntl-w, "n", and "~", and it combines them for you. No memorization needed. A "ç" is simply "c" and ",". Elegant.

“Macros were exquisite.”

Yes! I was given the title of “Goddess Of Word Perfect” when I started a job in Convention Services at a five-Star resort. Until then, staff had to type mundane items once at a time when preparing quotes for corporations’ conferences.

I created a macro for each item. (THAT initial input took a long time as there were hundreds of items.) Later, what had taken an hour to prepare a quote ended up taking 4 or 5 minutes.

Again,... that was in DOS WP.
