By the time WS for Win came out, it was hardly the same company, and
certainly not an equivalent program to WS 3.3. The program I use is NewWord,
which was written by some of the main WS programmers after they were fired
by MicroPro and started their own company to provide a WS for Morrow
computers. NW was written in assembly language like the early WS versions.

        I was always a Wordstar fan, and have a couple of versions
here still, but Wordstar for Windows was horrible!
