i'm trying to print my stupid Frankentstein essay that's due tomorrow and whenever it prints, it does one full line, then one or two words on the next line, then one full line, and so on. i don't have a clue as to how to fix this problem? does anyone?

Your end paragraphs are messed up. Email it to me, and I will look at if you want.

Sounds like you need to go into Options and choose Wrap to Window. Then fix your paragraphs.

hmm. thanks. how do i get it to double space? can i even get it to double space?

I doubt it. Wordpad is just Notepad on steroids -- it'll open larger text files than Notepad, but it ain't meant for true word processing. Didn't your PC come with that MS Works thingie, if you don't have Office? Or download StarOffice from sun.com.

ms "works" doesn't. everytime i tried to open word prcessing file, it "performed an illegal operation" and must be "shut down." but i s'pose i'll try again... we'll i'll be danged... it worked...

That's a Microsoft feature. It's called "guessware." Guess where and when your software will run. Keeps computing interesting. Wouldn't life be boring if everytime you launched a program, it worked?

BTW, Frankenstein essay? Summer school?

No, summer reading. It's all part of a combined effort of Satan, the UN, and the Illuminati to drive students up the wall. School starts tomorrow, and that is why my paper is due tomorrow.

They had a program called "Write," but it worked too well so they shitcanned it. Nostalgia for 3.1. . .

That must be the "innovation" they keep talking about.

Oh yeah, I remember Write. Readme.wri files etc. How about cardfile? A couple of years ago, I was formatting and throwing out old computers, and came across one loaded with Windows 1.0. The Program Manager was called Microsoft Executive or something. Wanted to keep it for a museum piece.

wow
