Maybe I misunderstood what Vic said. My interpretation was that he wanted
just words on the page. He said "a simple doc". If all you want to do is
type some words, save the doc and maybe print it, those actions take you
nowhere near the menus for graphic features. They're all on the File menu. I
suppose a spastic mouse movement could cause you to hit toolbar buttons, but
that's one of many reasons why professional typists don't use the mouse for
the vast majority of work.

Nah, they were mostly "official" and a reflection on my
"professionalism" so they were fonted, centered, and paginated.
Anyway, most of the time I had problems with it was when a nerd
tricked it out with all kinds of tabulation, macros, and such.
Then I just refused to deal with it.
You know, you give some people a hammer, and they turn it into a
milling machine.
