# From the Editor’s Desk

This issue devotes a fair amount of space to the word processor, [MSCRIPT](http://localhost/computer_media/mscript/). Being fairly conversant with [Jack Dohany’s](http://localhost/company/jack-dohany/) revisions I find it easy to write about. The early edition of it has surfaced again, possibly the original, as an MSDOS program. Do any of our readers know the history of this word processor? We would like to run an article on it.
