Howdy! Joe,

I saw the message (below) in the Commodore Echo and my mind(?) began
wandering if You had the manual Lorry wants a copy of.

I thought about You because when You came to my home to return my
extra C=64 and C=1541, You gave me a Floppy Disk Box with some
5-1/4" Disks in it.

Some of those Disks had WP files on them but I don't have a copy of
the WP PRG You used to write them.

(I even try looking at a few of Your files using the Track and Sector
 PRG but that didn't show me any of what You wrote about.)

I can't remember if You used the PFS Write WP PRG or the Write Now WP
being asked about when You wrote Your TEXT Files on the Commodore 64
You had long ago.

I thought to write You to see if You have the instruction manual the
person is looking for and could be of help.

Thanks but unfortunately this is a general manual for the VIC-20 not the
Write Now word processor manual, perhaps I should have been more
specific.  However, I agree the bombjack site has some great resources on
it; I've used it a number of times.

Best wishes
