Oh, I forgot. Here's another part of the redefinition of "productivity" by
trying to get work done using WP/Linux: I cannot save a file in other than
WP 6/7 format!
I need to get a document out so I thought I'd use ApplixWord 3.7 (which
reads WP 6 format). Well, Applix cannot convert the WP 6/7 document so I
thought I'd try saving from WP as version 5.x. Nope. Save as ... with a
format other than WP 6/7 fails: "user has insufficient privledges to the
file or directory." And this is in my /home directory on a file which I
created! Of course, permissions are correct but WP can't see that.
