[Coco] X word

[Bill Pierce]

@Gene,
Microtech Consultants were still advertising XWord in the April '89 issue of Rainbow.
Also, it's mentioned as the only "competition" to DynaStar in OS9 in the "Deciding What's "Write" For You" word-processor review in the same issue. It's listed as L1 & L2 in the comparison chart.
The ad states:

XWord
OS-9 word processing system
Works with standard text screen, XSCREEN, WORDPAK, or DISTO
True character oriented full screen editing
Full block commands
Find and Replace commands
Proportional spacing supported
Full printer control, character size, emphasized, italics, overstrike, underline, super/sub script
10 Header/Footers
Margins and Headers can be different for even/odd pages
$69.95   with source $124.95

So it looks like they did update it some for Coco3. I would still like your version if you find it.

Thnx,
Bill

X-Word and X-print were L1 stuffs IIRC, and I used to have a copy, circa 
1987 or so.  I'll have to go rummage around in my midden heap in the 
basement to see if the disk has survived.  I'll PM you if it has.
