There are several:
Applixware (from www.Redhat.com, $$)
StarOffice 4.0 (from www.stardivision.com, free for personal use)
WordPerfect 7 (from www.sdcorp.com, $$)
Corel is also coming out with WordPerfect 8 for linux, in about a month.
$$
Xemacs is included with SuSE and is a decent word processor.
In my opinion, StarOffice is the best. But, it does crash occasionally
and takes _lots_ of memory.
I have used WP7 for linux, and it is excellent! I think they want about
$90 for a personal copy. I would wait for the WP8 release. (maybe use
xemacs until then)
Applixware I haven't used enough to have an opinion.
And, Netscape can be used as a wordprocessor, too. It has centering,
bold, coloring, etc. Only saves in html, though.
There are probably many I missed.

I use StarOffice 4.0 and like it. It's very similar to MS Office
andimports most word formats, except for 97. It is pretty memory
intensive, so I'd have at least 64MB of ram. (I have 96MB here)
There is also Applixware (by RedHat) and Word Perfect. Both of
these you have to buy. StarOffice is free for personal use.

I have been enjoying _Applixware_, originally through Red Hat but now
also from S.u.S.E. The word processor is very much like Word but much
more stable. Plus you get a spreadsheet, presentation program, email,
etc. Since you're using 5.1 I believe there is a demo on your CD's. Give
it a try.

If you're just interested in basic word processing and would prefer to
avoid a cash layout, check out LyX, a wysiwyg-style front end to LaTeX.
Very cool, configurable, and free.
Apparently, there's also a KDE version called KLyX, which some people
rave about.

LyX for example. Produces the prettiest output of all WP packages
because it uses TeX.

Since I'm still new to Linux, I keep Win95 in my disk together with
SuSE 5.1. I'm trying to learn more and more in order to cut my
dependency from MS Windows for reasons, amongst others, such as the
one I'm going to enumerate right now:
Today, after spending roughly one and a half hours typing a speech on
MSWord, I suddenly got one of these, getting more usuals with time,
annoying, frustrating, "illegal operation" messages which end up
forcing you into closing
the program down without having the chance to save your
work. Of course I could/should have saved the work in advance (but
just how many times?), or activated the auto-save option (which slows
you down quite a lot and stops you every time it's saving). Anyway,
all my work down the flush... no trace of it anywhere, no way I could
recover it.
Of course I'm guilty as charged for using MS Word, Access, or even
Windows 95. But my guilt is just not having known about Linux before
now.
++++++++++++ end story - start request ++++++++++++
Now, could anyone advice me on a neat, easy to use, easy to configure
with the printer, word processor for Linux? It would help a lot if it
had features such as centering, bolding, "italic-ing", underlining,
and even colouring (not necessarily) text.
Best Regards.

No, I've only found the complete package (50 MB) :-(
Btw. you can get a list of ftp-sites at www.stardivision.de (not

Hi!
Trying to kill the keyboard, misc.word.corp@pobox.com produced:

Depending on what you plan do do, you might even do away with lyx and
use your trusty editor with (plain) LaTeX. However, that is in no way
WYSIWY(W)G ((won't) get), and you'd have to learn a bit of LaTeX, too.
Oh, BTW, LaTeX is aviable in a wide range of machines, including UNIX,
DOS and Win, and I would bet there are even more around ...
