I've uploaded a slightly revised version of my WPMacPPC Appliance, a SheepShaver-based system that emulates an ancient PowerPC Mac with WordPerfect 3.5e...
The last item reminds me of an experience I had when I worked for a school system. Back in the early days we had a Combination of Apple I, II, IIe, IIc, Ti-88...
Thanks for this. It's always good to get updates! I really appreciate all the work that goes into these free projects. Thank you. One quick question. If we...
Minor updates to the documentation for this utility. The macros themselves are unchanged. This utility is recommended if you use the Enhanced Outlining Module....
I found an improvement to make to one of the macros, and further revised the documentation. If you use the Enhanced Outlining, you'll find this update useful....
... It's amazing how this has grown. It has been floating around the email listst, and then later the web since long before Satellite Software was selling Word...
Just copy the new one over the old one. The whole idea was to make it self-contained. This stuff is really play, not work. I've never used WPMac - I use WPDOS...
There was a version of it floating around MIT in the 1970s - when it was about someone working at a terminal. A friend who worked at some IBM research center...
Thank you, John. The best ideas were yours and Smokey's, of course. And the rest of it is filled with bloated code because I don't know enough Applescript to...
Hello~ I just got a new MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard and installed the "all in one" Sheepshaver with WP. It seems to work fine except for one thing. I have a...
WordPerfect can read WriteNow files, if (IIRC) not the last version of WN. To add programs to the SS / Unix disk: 1. Quit SheepShaver (do not omit this step....
There are two separate versions of SheepShaver with WP available, so it's not quite clear which you mean by the "all in one" version. Does its desktop have a...
John, Under Snow Leopard this procedure no longer works. Snow Leopard does not support writing to HFS disks, like the SheepShaver disk image. The only way to...
Thanks again for the update, Ed. I'm still on Tiger . . . This explains part of the advantage to your setup, putting the SS disk in a vm container in the...
Since I basically stole your original setup, you're certainly free to steal it back. You'll need to replace the ROM in addition to the disk image, I think. I...
Since you have the SheepShaver-WP setup (based on the information you sent in a private message), the answer to your question is the procedure in Message #6419...
... Quick question: Is the message # retrievable from mail headers [I could not find it], or must one go to the web interface? [Yes, I know one must go to the...
Hi. SheepShaver has just started a weird behavior. In order to click on a button or something on the desk top, or in a document, I have to set the cursor about...
To begin, my personal computer is a Mac, whereas my work computer is Windows. At work, I only have access to WordPerfect. But at home (on my Mac), I only...
You can open and save WPWin files (from any version of WPWin) by opening them in WP for the Mac, running under emulation software. You can use John Rethorst's...
This is a known problem in some versions of SheepShaver. The best place to ask about it is here: http://www.emaculation.com/forum/ Register with the site, and...
the only solution I know that will translate from Word back to Word Perfect for a Mac is Dataviz's MacLink Plus Deluxe. It's a PPC program from 2007, but it...
Why don't you just use another format? WordPerfect can save as a Word Document or an RTF... If you are willing to use "a converter" - then why not just save...
OpenOffice opens up all my WP files that MS Word 2007 for Mac cannot www.openoffice.org ____________________Richard Alan Lehrman 777 Arthur Godfrey Road Fourth...
I can't speak for the original poster, but there are excellent reasons for keeping a document in the same format - especially when (as in the original poster's...
... Yes, Ed. That's why I asked the OP about his Mac, OS and target WP format - the framework on which a working solution must hang. Unfortunately, he has not...
