Two things:
A review: I just bought wordsearch from Keybits
Po box 592293, Miami Florida (305) 238-3820.
It is a spelling system program (which i am not using in composing this
message) which runs on CPM machines. It seems to work fairly well.
It will prepare a list of all words not in a dictionary, but in a documetn--
etc. it allows you to update dictionaris easily. (You can see now why I
bought it.) It set me back $195--but its worth it in our application.
I use it with Magic Wand. The author appears to be a wordstar user--and itws
control structure is modelled after wordstar.
A question: Is anyone out there familiar with Pascal/M from a supplier
called Sorcim? If so, is it any good? Is there a better Pascal to
use on CPM machines. I want it for two uses. education and general
scientific programming. Does this afeect your recommendation?
