My wife and I still have an old Tandon PC with a 80286 CPU and Windows3.11.
The Windows has never been used, but the machine has WordPerfect 5.1, a
superb word processor.
Although my wife is quite good with Debian Lenny for other purposes,
the old machine is still in daily use as a typewriter !
A result of this is that we have a large collection of 3.5" floppies
all in WP5.1.
Some of the floppies contain work we do not wish to lose.
I have often laboriously converted files to WORD or even text files.
What we would really like is an application able to convert WP5.1
either to Open Office or .PDF format.
Any suggestions please ?
Back to nostalgia, does anybody remember the superb "reveal codes"
feature of WP5.1 ?
Best regards.
Geoff
