	Whew, what a relief!!   I coauthored an article in 
issue #4 and I felt like I was getting blamed for the whole
magazine!!   I am truely sincerly interested in promoting
UNIX for text processing.  It is one of its strong points.
I LIKE Writer's Workbench and it has helped my writing.

	When I first started using UNIX (Version 6), the only available
literature on it was "The C Programming Language", the manual, and
a Bell Systems Technical Journal.   My feeling is that in the long
run magazines like UNIX World will benefit all of us who make a living
developing UNIX applications and supporting UNIX.   Where else
would an article about WWB be appropriate?   

	I have been forwarding anything that could possibly be
useful to the people I know that have some input to the magazine
(Bill King and Rebecca Thomas).  I do not forward insults because
I can't see how insults can do anything but hurt people's feelings.
