Win95 word processors are so sucky. WordPerfect's no better--try total system
crashes requiring a cold boot.
My solution: do all text editing in WordPerfect 6.1c for DOS, which is very,
very stable. And it has a configurable keyboard, so if you've been around since
WordStar you can create an elaborated Control-key "cursor diamond" scheme.
