He was an interesting character though. I believe he was married to
the publisher of BYTE (maybe Virginia Green ?), and she claimed he had
nothing to fo with the magazine. Who knows, the truth about some

Anyone remember Volkswriter? Neat word processor written by a Chilean
named "Camille...something or other" out in Monterey, California, guy
who did it as a moonlight project while an employee of the Navy language
school.

Yep.

My all time favorite was Wordstar for CPM.

I still say that was the best word processor ever.

become a standard.
