That's the one, thanks. According to Wiki it was cheap enough that it was 
often bundled. I remember poking at it a couple of times but it wasn't 
anything I would buy. 

The only 'word processor' I've used for much was Wordstar. It came bundled 
on the Osborne 1 and was a passable programming editor in text mode. 
Supercalc was also bundled but I never figured out what to do with it or 
the later iterations of spreadsheets.
