Seems to me that Word Perfect for Linux, if it existed, would have the same problem that all proprietary software has: i.e., it uses a proprietary format that assumes the availability of Word Perfect for anyone wishing to work with the document. I know you can make plain text files with WP, but why bother to use WP if you want to make plain text files? What are the advantages of Word Perfect for Linux that would be worth the limitations of a proprietary file format? Or am I missing something?
