<OT> Wordperfect 5 for unix

[Joel Hammer]

Is anyone using wordperfect 5 for unix?

I have a problem with hyphens and dashes.

I need to find out which ascii characters wordperfect
is using for the dash and for the hypen feature. On our
keyboard at work, the simple - key is really a hypen
request in wordperfect, while the [home] [-] sequence
inserts a real -. Wordperfect has jumped around over
the years in how you insert a hypen or a dash into its
documents.

I can't save wordperfect documents at work to a local hard
drive (we run wordperfect off a server) and so I can't
analyze the ascii code properly.

My problem is we are cutting and pasting documents into
wordperfect from a browser, and the -'s are being converted
to hypens, rather than remainding dashes. I have to concoct
some cure for this.

So, if you have wordperfect 5 for unix, please email me
a document that has dashes and hypens in it, labelled
preferably!

Thanks,

Joel
