What is it?
A text formatting and printing program, probably compatible with all Commodore 8 bit computers. Write the text in on the data lines in the program - use the normal basic editing functions as your text editor. Use some html tags for formatting the text (if you like). RUN to preview or to print out. SAVE and you will have the text and viewer in the same file. Write on for example the VIC20, give it to your C128 friend, and he can print it out directly with correct formatting and all. The program is faster on the C128, Plus/4 and C16 as it takes advantage of the more advanced basic.
