I remember a product named WordPerfect: great to use. It had a so-called "under water view" to see (and change) the embedded composing code. They sadly lost out in the feature adding race with Microsofts' Word.

I also recall a product as Lotus Word Pro: terrible, never got the layout I wanted.

Even with the discount, it's still overpriced at $173.99

The only Windows word processor I used (when not at work) was Lotus Word Pro. I liked it's clean interface. But I never liked Microsoft Word at all. I hated the way it tried to "think" for you.

My formatting was pretty straightforward so that may be why I never ran into layout issues.

I think it's still popular in the legal profession. My wife used WordPerfect for Windows for a few years. Now she mostly uses Google Docs (which I don't like at all).

I still like WordStar for DOS best.
