Yes I like dreaming too! The fact remains that doc is a very nice tool. It
uses TeX algorithms to make documents of higher quality than any word processor
I have seen (I've seen a few). It is freely available. Also, if you want to
do any real word processing, and not text editing, you need to use either the
vgalib stuff and start from scratch, or use X11. The main drawback to doc is
that it requires a fast machine. Bugs will be worked out, and I believe doc
will become the word processor or **choice** for a variety of individuals and
will probably help make Linux a serious platform for those who need word
processing capabilities. BTW, InterViews has many other capabilities, but doc
is an example of what can be done with InterViews.
InterViews is available on
interviews.stanford.edu in /pub/3.1-beta3.tar.Z
